You're right of course, and my comment was oversimplified.
But supply chains for agriculture are a lot more complicated than sourcing seeds.
I agree with you that the current state is unsustainable. On a more general level, again, it's similar in manufacturing. Seeds or other raw materials, tractors or other specialized equipment.
Globalization adds and subtracts different kinds of resilience. Specialization only subtracts resilience.
Neither of our points has much to do with AWS though. :)
