The bigger issue is that there's a lot of customers where they have split cloud deployments, which means the customers hurt even if they are stable within the clouds themselves.

If you are deployed in such a way that both GCP and AWS need to be up you're doing it backwards. Multi-cloud strategy is supposed to result in the intersection of cloud failures, not the union of them.

I have heard that many companies are multi cloud as a result of acquisitions, resulting in a dependency on both clouds.
