> explaining why you chose some random zone no one ever heard of

Is this from real experience of something that actually happened, or just imagined?

The only things that matter in a decision are:

* Services that are available in the region

* (if relevant and critical) Latency to other services

* SLAs for the region

Everything else is irrelevant.

If you think AWS is so bad that their SLAs are not trustworthy, that's a different problem to solve.
