But Amazon is hardly offering Lucene as a SaaS offering, don't they?

If they did, should that mean Elasticsearch can't?

I don't see the point there.

Lucene is a library, you can hardly offer it as SaaS. It's gluework.

On the other hand, Elastic is much more enduser software, which is much more routinely abused for SaaS hosting by larger corporations.
