I'm guessing you didn't watch any of the videos of Google Next and haven't been paying attention to their moves for at least a year or two? Their new Customer Reliability Engineering team is no flipping joke. They helped scale out Pokemon Go (among other things).

Seems like an awful lot of handholding to me, so I suspect your argument is simply invalid.

I've been paying very close attention to what they are doing and attended Google Next. I know what they are doing. They seem to be doing the right thing, but the jury is still out. They still haven't proven they are good at the enterprise.
