Eventually AWS always gives customers what they want even if it's a "bad idea".

Bad ideas are very relative.

Some bad ideas work extremely well if they fit your use case, you understand very well the tradeoffs and you’re building safeguards (disaster recovery).

Some other companies try to convince (force?) you into a workflow or into a specific solution. Aws just gives you the tools and some guidance on how to use them best.

Indeed.
