I think most people pick Netlify for it's Infra as a Service offering, so it would be nice if they had a way to throttle and budget in that offering.

I would even imagine Netlify's target market is small to mid size businesses who really don't need ridiculous burstable scaling capacity at all. Seems like a bit of a trap door for that customer base.

I agree though, I wouldn't host on them as a small business due to that risk, but I am also happy running my own server so I might be an edge case.
