You're downvoted for saying "You, person I don't know, should have used a different solution because of reason X" without considering they thought of that when they made their decision.

It was in the phrasing, not in some defense of the "Cloud", which is overrated for existing businesses.

I am universally saying you don't need things like AWS.

But I can see how that phrasing might warrant a down vote.

I have a product that generates 1 report per client per day. It has a single dev who doesn't know anything about infra automation.

He got his code running on Elastic Beanstalk in about 2 hours. I spend $40/mo on AWS, but an extra team member would cost me at least $10k/mo.

Never say "never". Many (most) of us would prefer predictable, high infra costs over unpredictable (possibly even higher) payroll.
