AWS services to avoid

I haven't seen a scenario where TF plan AND apply miss something, but I have definitely been in the scenario where a CF stack fails, and then the rollback fails, and then you're stuck with an undeletable resource and can only submit a ticket to AWS.

Ditto on both counts: we stopped using CF after hitting one of those irrecoverable bugs — usually deleting the resources manually and ignoring all the errors deleting the stack would recover after a cycle or two but we hit at least one case where that wasn’t true.

I had a lot of uncatched issues while migrating from tf11 to tf12, as far as I remember it was due to heavy module usage.
