This is an interesting exchange if only for the thread developing instead of a single reply from a rep; it’s nice to see that level of engagement.

Google stubbornly resists the idea that their platforms have actual users who depend on things not being broken for them constantly. It's cultural.

AWS has the complete opposite model.
