Counterpoint to this is the rate at which you can grab some new infra and try something out is amazing. You need a Redis cache? Or a GPU? Here have one in a few seconds, instead if next month or never.
It is a bit like complaining about making tractor engines more efficient when you didn’t have those problems using animals and ploughs.
You are describing corporate red tape for your organization. Those things were already possible before the cloud hype of last 5-8 years.
Anyway the point is also not that cloud didn't solve any issues but that by solving 1 issue, you get 5 new issues, and you solve one of those and you get again 5 new ones. And the loop keeps going endlessly.

But how often are these things truly *necessary"? I think they seem more necessary than they really are because they are so readily available.
