I have a lot of sympathy for GCP users. There are so many stories of surprise and unpredictable billing. All the cloud providers have foot-guns for the unwary or not-yet-bitten. Although I use GCP all the time, were I to set something up for a friend I would not turn to GCP because of the fear of expensive oopsies. E.g. I wish there were project and per-query options to limit max slot hours and max bytes scanned per query etc. I regularly run really big queries in BQ that can take 10x the slots on some runs just because of 'BQ weather' and slot contention.
