How is it that you prefer to engineer those workarounds instead of just paying $20/month? It surely can't be worth in engineering hours and ongoing maintenance of hacky workaround code?

If it isn't clear, there's an issue of trust here, not money. And frankly, a fallback shouldn't be much of an issue since fly.io, AWS Lambda@Edge are like-for-like swaps, so we'd still be "serverless" just on a different yet similar platform (albeit costlier).
