Yup.

If you look at it from their point of view:

We were making an API that take images does stuff on the GPU and pushes back an answer

It needed to be secure, fast and easy to look after. If they had forced cognito down my throat, and it stopped me from shipping on time, they would have missed out in $$$ of GPU time. I trusted that architect more, because they were honest, and actually helped. Making me want to stay inside the expensive walled garden that is AWS, more.

Also, consider that the key to being successful in enterprise sales is all about relations. When that account rep leaves Amazon, they want to be able to use the relationship they have with you with whatever product they end up selling later.
