I agree with you.

Snowflake is better. Redshift has been really slow to execute. AWS is doing the world's worst job of articulating whatever vision they have for analytics. AWS's message is laser-focused on infrastructure folks and machine learning engineers (not analyst, data scientist, not absolutely anything else).

The higher you go up the stack, the slower and less meaningful, AWS's solutions feel. There is a fantastic job opportunity out there for someone to reconcile AWS's data analytics offerings. They have so much upside.

I'm still not betting on Snowflake winning a direct competition with their primary supplier. For the enterprise and the highly regulated: Redshift is good enough, already there, and they don't NEED the efficiencies that Snowflake makes available.
