Yeah, that's the other thing to keep in mind, since the KVM APIs are different from the vSphere APIs, you can't just swap providers without changes. But if you were going from a test vSphere stack to a prod, you could update the endpoint and be just fine.

Hashicorp has caught some shit in the past about claiming the code covers multiple providers. Technically, it can if you do weird shit with modules, but in reality there isn't a clean way to have a single, easily understandable project that can provision to multiple platforms.
