If you need it for CI/CD of some kind, then APIs, networking, access control, and security (including, possibly, physical security) are all important too, and not trivial to do with a machine in your closet.
Paying by the second is also ideal for these use cases. You run a build occasionally, but it mostly sits idle.

We just donate all its spare cycles to Boinc. :) Pay by the second would perhaps be preferable but unless I am reading this wrong you have to pay by the hour and it's relatively expensive.
