One person isn’t going to come remotely close to fixing this. I work for AWS/Azure/GCP and can tell you first hand that billing is an insanely hard problem to solve. It’s all done in batch by the service itself and pushed to a centralized service once all the hard work has been done. Each service has a small, underfunded team that handles billing and their last thought is some random guy spending a few grand on his personal account. Every ounce of their energy is going to reducing their own COGs and reacting to the asks of the biggest customers.
