Not really, and apparently there is enough value to now having startups replicating application servers by running WebAssembly docker containers as Kubernetes pods.

What are you thinking of specifically? Because using WASM doesn't sound like "replicating application servers", but rather like an attempt to address things like the startup speed of typical large Java apps.
Unless you just mean that using Kubernetes at all is replicating application servers, which was my point. Kubernetes makes language-specific application servers like Wildfly/JBoss or Websphere obsolete, and is much more powerful, generic, and an improvement in just about every respect.
I rather deal with Websphere 5 than Kubernetes, that version number is on purpose, anyone that was there will get it.
As for the question I mean the startups trying to sell the idea to use WebAssembly based pods as the next big idea.
