Amazon's equivalent of this (sort of) was the "andon cord."
Not only was the physical metaphor that led to this name never properly explained (it's basically an "emergency stop" string in a Toyota factory), but the actual use of this mechanism was so heavily discouraged that I never saw it used in 4+ years at Amazon. except once very performatively by a VP who had already been paged awake at 2am or something like that.
In my experience, a lot of the AWS engineers live in continuous fear of screwing up by using the huge array of extremely powerful, dangerous, poorly-explained, and ever-changing tools that they have access to.
