Make it hard to accidentally call and hide it in the docs somewhere with items related to testing.

This would be more effective if so many other AWS features weren't hidden in non-obvious places in the docs.

I'd imagine there is only a comparatively small (but earnest) pool of people who would want such an offering.

On top of keeping people who don't want it out, you'd need it to be expensive to offset the lower utilization.

I'd be okay with a garbage-tier, too. It's not failing on purpose, but only because no one gives a shit. Maybe that's just standard AWS?
