        Very true, but I assume you don’t mean “then why bother at all” right?

        And if I’m correct in that assumption, then I figure we can agree that mitigating what you can is still a worthwhile endeavor?

          For the user asking for ways, the user needs ways not just one way out of a single amazon service.

        You can choose to repatriate your workload. People are doing it to save money constantly; now you get to claim it’s for the greater good!
