It's horrible, but it serves a purpose. I've worked on projects where qualifying a vendor is a ton of work. CodeCommit is.... adequate, if you just need hosted git.

AWS and Azure tend to be easy to work with, if you're dealing with anything with regulatory requirements. I have projects which can't go on github, hosted gitlab, or bitbucket. We host our own gitlab, but if we were doing this in 2022, we might use CodeCommit since AWS is qualified.

It makes sense too. Each vendor expands your security perimeter. This isn't just dumb bureaucracy (but that doesn't make it less annoying either).
