I'm not sure why the hostility or what exactly you disagree with. I said that we could migrate off of AWS but it'd take more than a day. You say that your company can migrate off AWS but it would take more than a day. Where's the disagreement?

I'm curious how many companies would survive it at all.

Sure, you could _migrate_ off of AWS if AWS was still alive. Could you restore your data and start your business from scratch if you lost everything? I suspect many rather large businesses could not.
