I don't know your background but the way you respond makes me think you have not been responsible for systems that multiple tenants rely on for varying workloads.

These assumptions you're making are dangerous because the variety of workloads across tenants is extreme. If you're going to do something like "kill compute no matter what" then you better have a good reason for it.

You may want to look at my resume. I've seen what happens when you don't "kill compute no matter what" - When compute does get killed no matter what (hardware problems happen quite often at scale), you have problems. I've also seen it done right. Clearly, Fargate has not - I could also tell you that from having used the service.
