AWS covers every kind of customer.

  AWS provides different levels of support and care depending on what you pay, as well as better discounts at scale depending on how large you are. A Snowflake will always be treated superior to Joe with his personal project. Snowflake's product suggestions will always make AWS's roadmap, but Joe's will not. Snowflake will (most likely) get a 70-90% discount per object while Joe will be paying a 100-300% oversell.

    And yet you can use s3 with the same level of availability and capabilities without the need to pay for support.

      Because Snowflake is spending 9 figures subsidizing you. If you want a feature change in s3, if you aren't paying 8-9 figures, you ain't getting that feature change. For example, if you want to S3 buckets to encrypt using Tiger hashing (for god knows what reason) if you ain't spending 8-9 figures, it ain't happening. Customers are not equal.
