Exact flag name TBD, but for embedded use cases, it isn't as important to preserve user data as it is to guarantee that a cluster is created somehow.

We tried this as a default in v1.5, but users did not like the behavior.

do you think it would make sense to also retry the command once (e.g minikube start -p []) after deleting the cluster?

@etanshaul - At least In v1.9, we retry cluster creation so long as the cluster was created by this session. We should ensure that this behavior is preserved with this new flag.

To clarify: the intended behavior here is: If startup fails and flag is set:

  • Delete the cluster (no data worth saving)
  • Start it again
