The quotas are there for one good reason: the system running wild consuming way too much.
- for limited resources like IPs, it avoids one customer eating all the stock. Yes he’s paying for them, but other customers wouldn’t be able to get some anymore, generating frustrated users and revenue loss
- for most other "infinite stock" resources, it avoids the bill exploding. It’s good for the customer, but also for the provider as they’re sure to be paid and not take a billing decline or sucking up all of a startup’s money.
