`kube.Client` just bundles these all in one place, so we have a single object to pass around anywhere we need Kubernetes access.
Additionally, it has a fake client variant, that does the same thing but with fake clients for use in unit tests.

Aside from this, there are a few conveniences and workarounds built-in to the client to make things simpler.
