This. It takes years to learn good architecture, and Cloudformation nudges you to make it right. Thats why you need senior infrastructure engineers.

- jen20 7y agoThis is 100% unrelated to “senior infrastructure engineers” (most of whom I’ve seen end up building pure crap), and import is simply a matter of practicality. If we followed the (patently poor) advice above, CF users would not have been able to use NAT Gateways - to take one of several prominent examples - for many months following their launch. Terraform was substantially faster to support them, but being able to import resources created outside the normal mechanism for _any_ reason is an essential part of any IaC tool.
