The upside for the noob trying out/learning is huge. I'm no longer that person, but I think GCP/AWS are just being lazy about this - perhaps because they earn a lot of money from engineer mistakes. Of course it's possible to create an actual limit. There'll be some engineering cost, like 0.5%-1% extra per service? Edit: Being European I think legislation might be the fix, since both Amazon and Google have demonstrated an unwillingness to fix this issue, for a very long time.
