The chiefs could have been getting Kingsley ready for a stretch run in the playoffs at LT. That has to say something about what the chiefs think of Kingsley as a LT? Or am I missing it?

I think people are putting way too much into them playing Kingsley at G. It seems to me that was a good way to get him some NFL snaps and confidence without putting him on an island and continuing to destroy his confidence. He's still got all of the traits, he was just too raw in technique in year one.
I don't think anyone we could reach is going to be further along than he would be in year two.
Now, maybe they just think he's never going to put it together; we don't know. We aren't in the meeting rooms and watching every practice. But he was always a project, and you don't give up on a project after three games.
