Hello, author here!
What you describe is essentially what I currently do. But I've inherited an infrastructure that was not setup that way, and re-encrypting things has been very time consuming.
At the company I'm at now use multiple AWS accounts where teams have their own accounts, and it's common for people to forget to use KMS when creating databases or similar. I might have just fail in my search but I couldn't find any way to block default keys via SCPs. If you have any suggestions for that I'm happy to take them!
