That sounds terrible. I'm sorry you had to deal with that.

If they could go back in time, would modules have been good enough?

No, because control flow is very janky and completely tacked-on.

I considered (in all three cases) making a forked version of terraform for use in CI and for aiding control flow.

Pulumi/Terragrunt would probably have helped the specific issue you’re mentioning though.
