At bare minimum there should be a feature like "Give me any VM that closely resembles an E8s_v5 with at least 32G ram". Or "anything from these 4 approved types". I don't always care if you give me a E8_v4 or a D8 instead, just give something. With all the 100 of variants of VMs that are available, finding an exact match is obviously an unnecessary constraint. Maybe they already simulate this behind the scenes, I don't know, though given the sizes are advertised with HW capabilities I'd imagine they can't really simulate a v4 using a v5 and vice versa. Only place I've seen compute be treated this fluidly is in Container instance, which is a bad choice for many many other reasons.
