If you wanted multiple pull-based consumers for the stream, wouldn't you need a separate SQS queue per consumer, with each queue hooked up to SNS? Perhaps I'm mistaken, but that seems brittle to me. With Kinesis/Kafka, you only need to register a new appName/consumer group on the single queue for fan-out. Plus, both are FIFO by default, at least within a partition.
