Handling your base load with AWS is ludicrously expensive compared to the alternatives.

Yes but the cost is tiny compared to paying some engineers to do all the hard work replicating what AWS offers on top of some alternative like Linode or whatever.

If your hosting costs are huge part of your costs, you're doing it wrong (or are very very successful, Google/Facebook scale).
