I think the point for many is not a net money saved but a reshaping of the cost curve. I am ok spending a lot farther down the road to transfer everything off of AWS if I can spend almost nothing now. Because as a small business or startup, I don't have money now. But if I grow to the point that AWS becomes too expensive I can assume that I will have more money at that time so the cost of switching will hopefully not be too painful.
