Well to be fair Kubernetes doesn't always pluralize the names of collections, since you can run "kubectl get deployment/myapp". You don't want to do the equivalent of "select * from user" do you? That doesn't make any sense!!! And don't translate that to "get all the records from the user table"! That's "get all the records from the users table". (Rails defaults to plural, Django to singular for table names. Not sure about the equivalent for Kubernetes but in the CLI surprisingly you can use either)
