Cloud agnostic has its place if you have enterprise contract with cloud provider.

If you have 100s of projects cloud agnostic infra is good. If for example Amazon buys your competitor and now you get "new contract coming up".

That said I agree "most projects fare much better without" - a lot of people don't understand they are not in position where they would benefit from that.

The issue here is that the contract terms might change iteratively by some percentage, while development costs are exponential -- adding requirements to the project increases cost exponentially.
