3) I haven't used GCP except for Looker + BigQuery, and for the most part I have been a satisfied customer. Sharing data and dashboards across teams for non-(engineers + data scientists) is critical and Looker does a pretty good job for our use case.

4) I've also received discounts which helped us save on query and storage costs (20% off above a certain threshold).

As a hobbyist, I have used Google Colab which has been pretty good as well. (Don't know if it officially comes under GCP).

This is known but is worth repeating - GCP is under-pricing its products as a way to gain market share, and once they have a larger piece of the pie, they are likely to increase prices.
