> Project is a dud? just nuke the cloud project and no more charges for it.

How is that a negative? Not every project is going to be successful. That's just a basic fact of life. That you don't have to deal with the sunk cost fallacy and just pull the plug is a good thing.

> Project is poorly architected and running like a dog? throw more resources at it.

Another positive...?! You can continue to serve your clients and maintain a revenue stream while you work on a better architecture. Instead of failing completely. And once you need less ressources, you easily scale down.
