But most companies aren't startups. Many companies are established, growing businesses with a need to be able to easily implement new initiatives and products.
The benefits of cloud for LE are completely different. I'm happy to break down why, but I addressed the smb and mid-enterprise space here because most large enterprises already know they shouldn't run on a single rack.

This is a straw man. No one, anywhere in this thread or in the OPs original article proposed a single-rack solution.
From the OP: > Running a primary and a backup server is usually enough, keeping them in different datacenters.
This is just a complete lack of engagement with the post. Most LE’s know they shouldn’t run a two rack setup either. That is not the size or layout of any LE that I’ve interacted with. The closest is a bank in the developing world that had a few racks split across data centers in the same city and was desperately trying to move away given power instability in the country.
