The downside being that you pay a lot more if it gets used a lot.
Which is probably when you need to re-architect, anyway. There are also several optimizations that can be made along the way to reduce costs. I think there are plenty of ways to think of problems from a serverless standpoint that really don't need to go the traditional server route. I also think there are plenty of use cases where serverless may very well be a problem, that's okay.
