For me, it's -0. Yes. Likely some people used it, but we made it terribly
difficult for our Helm chart users to use it. We have no support for
multi-executors in the Helm Chart we released. I would only be for making
it stable if we release Helm Chart with multi-executors as a first-class
citizen. Even a doc on how to use it with the current Helm chart would be
enough.
