The problem isn’t knowing every service in detail. It is knowing the “what” and not necessarily the “how”.
But the attitude that a cloud provider is just a bunch of VMs leads to crap like hosting everything on VMs, reinventing the wheel etc.
You wouldn’t hire a database admin with no database experience and expect them to learn on the fly. Why hire someone with no experience with your cloud provider and hope they would learn on the fly?
Any technology/service/language has footguns and best practices that you only learn from experience.
