i'm not sure what your point is, exactly. do you imagine that if only minix didn't exist, this would never have happened?

what about them? i'm not sure what you're question is getting at.

if it's "easy" does that imply it must "happen yet"?

what do gcp and azure need to be considered alternatives?
