Agreed. Recently I was discussing the same point with a non-technical friend who was explaining that his CTO had decided to move from Digital Ocean to AWS, after DO experienced some outage. Apparently the CEO is furious at him and has assumed that DO are the worst service provider because their services were down for almost an entire business day. The CTO probably knows that AWS could also fail in a similar fashion, but by moving to AWS it becomes more or less an Act of God type of situation and he can wash his hands of it.
