There's plenty of tools to automate the creation and management of new accounts. The biggest hurdle afaik is there's no automated way to delete an account

Azure also has higher-level subscriptions

It does, but account creation is kind of slow, and the whole control tower / SSO / etc. stuff is fairly janky. Clearly Amazon have been trying to make the account a more common level of isolation for some time and it's improving, but it's still not fantastic. Support also still has a minimum monthly pricing and isn't cross-account.
AWS recently added the organizations:CloseAccount API (albeit with some caveats discussed elsewhere in this comment tree).
