I claimed that Google is the only major cloud provider with all three of:

- single-zone object storage buckets

- regional object storage buckets

- transparently replicated, dual region object storage buckets

I agree that AWS has two of the three. AFAIK AWS does not have multi-region buckets - the closest they have is canned replication between single-region buckets.

not quite the same, but S3 does have https://aws.amazon.com/s3/features/multi-region-access-point..., which would let you treat multiple buckets in different regions as one single bucket (mostly). But you still do need to set up canned replication.
