For the record I agree with you but existing customers who are heavily invested in AWS would find it difficult to vote with their dollars.

Agreed. I have a couple of clients that have a pretty substantial AWS spend, but the cost of switching to Azure is too high compared to the difference in offerings. You don't want to spend tens of thousands of dollars of developer time and risk switching datacenters for a small improvement.
