I wouldn’t lay blame for Heroku’s financial problems at the feet of architecture choices it made customers adopt.
Also, Heroku’s buildpacks were anything but proprietary. They’ve been adopted by a bunch of other products.

Sure, the concept of buildpacks were copied to other platforms (I personally worked on building one of those platforms, Cloud Foundry), but they were a proprietary solution that others adopted for ease of transition off of Heroku, not because it was some great solution to IaC.
