Yes, you as a developer should know something about how the service works before you use it. I first opened the AWS console in 2016 and by then I had read about the possible gotchas.

Well, people get informed by reading these stories. So let's keep informing people to avoid AWS.

Yes I’m sure large corporations and even startups are going to leave AWS because a few junior devs didn’t do their research.

You do know that large corporations and startups employ junior devs as well, right?

All else being equal, would you rather choose the platform where a junior dev can accidentally incur a $1M bill (which would already bankrupt early startups), or the platform where that same junior dev get a "usage limits exceeded - click here to upgrade" email?
