The title says. My current Lemmy client, Jerboa, which is made by an admin, could support kbin with assistance from kbin devs.

Not impossible, but I think that is unlikely has kbin has a totally different backend and also additional functionality that is not available in Lemmy apps.
The lead dev of kbin has said he’s evaluating implementing the API.
This doesn’t make it less likely. They can implement the lemmy api for compatible features and add their own api (or more likely use the masto-api) for the other features.
Yes, but why would you use an app with a service if the app only supports half of it?
A lot of kbin users are coming from reddit and don’t care about its additional (microblogging) features. Using a Lemmy-API powered app would give them exactly the experience they’re looking for. And there’s nothing stopping these Lemmy-API apps from adding support for the kbin extended api.
Fedilab is an app that was originally built for Mastodon and uses the mastoapi but also supports some Pleroma specific features. Apps don’t need to be directly one-to-one tied to services.
