AWS is under-reporting the severity of the issue though. The primary outage may be in a single AZ, but there are parts of the AWS stack that affected all AZs in us-east-1, and potentially other regions as well. For example, even now I'm unable to create a new ElastiCache cluster in different AZs of us-east-1.

Isn't that because Elasticache will distribute the cluster across AZs automatically?

In this case, this was specifically with a single-AZ setup, using an AZ that was supposed to be unaffected.
