This is true about HN, and a very healthy perspective on cloud. It is very much the minority opinion that using the cloud is like using a repair shop for a car.

Unfortunately, the competency you are outsourcing is rare and getting rarer, meaning that infrastructure products are getting very expensive (and profitable).
