I think what is often missed is that many thought it's a good idea to just move stuff from baremetal to cloud VMs as is and then wondering about the bills.

IMHO cloud starts to really pay off for cloud native workloads on serverless offerings with FinOps as part of the culture. If you don't have cloud native workloads and don't want to develop such systems, then better keep your sysadmins and stay away from the clouds. There's absolutely no reason to ride the hype train, use whatever works best for the particular use case.
