You think that you're complaining about IAM, but really you're complaining about the web ui. I rarely use the web console, I use terraform or the cli. I'd you're vibe coding your infra with Claude, point it at the cli / terraform. Skip the ui.

With terraform you get the amazing experience of having to iterate, one at a time, through the five hundred and thirty seven new permissions you need to grant having decided that a lambda configuration needs to be ever so slightly different than it was yesterday, because there's no documentation linking terraform creation of resources and the IAM permissions required to successfully make the AWS API call behind the scenes. Or those for updating a resource, which are different, so you get to do it all again tomorrow. Or deleting - different again. Fun for the day after.
