Right, that sounds cool but also dangerous in the sense that I could write code that requires excessive infrastructure under the hood without realizing it (just like people pull in 10,000 npm packages).

Yes, but for this specific scenario I can monitor usage of each service and alert them. But I understand your concern in a broader sense that there are a lot of unknowns and people can do some real damage. But we can start small and see how it goes. Question is do you feel humanity should take a step in this direction to automate infra this way or it just too crazy?
