It takes like 30 seconds to point a Cloudfront distribution at an S3 bucket. Maybe a couple minutes more to set up the domain.

Eh, only if you've done it before. If it's your first time, it can easily take 30 mins to an hour, if you also have to figure out how to host the website on Route 53.

Well, sure, but every suggestion is going to take some time if you've never done it before. It's not like it's an obscure skill that you'll never use, it's pretty handy to know.
