I've done far more exotic ports than that - wholesale platform rearchitectures (mainframe batch jobs to J2EE SOA, anyone?). I've dealt with obsolescence in some seriously painful ways. Nah, moving a bunch of serverless business logic in Python or JavaScript to a Flask or Node.js host? That's trivial. Authentication? APIs? Write a shim! If infrastructure is really 90% of your code work and you can't salvage business logic in a platform change that doesn't require a new language, the problem isn't the serverless architecture.

It depends how tightly coupled is your code to the platform. You can't get more coupled than BaaS and thus the reason why I think proprietary BaaS is such a bad thing.
