I have to assume that at this point its either intentional(increases profits?) or because AWS doesn't truly understand their own systems due to the culture of the company.
- messe 1y ago> because AWS doesn't truly understand their own systems due to the culture of the company. This. There's a lot of freedom in how teams operate. Some teams have great internal documentation, others don't, and a lot of it is scattered across the internal Amazon wiki. I recall having to reach out on slack on multiple occasions to figure out how certain systems worked after diving through docs and the relevant issue trackers didn't make it clear.
