> This isn't simply about having fewer staff (although that can reduce internal politics and inefficiencies), but making fewer decisions and more importantly reducing the potential for making the wrong decisions

This is a myth directly from cloud providers marketing campaigns: that using the cloud simplifies infrastructure to the point that you don't need as much and/or as qualified staff.

In reality it is quite the trap: without experienced system administrators AWS and the like are free to dig their hands deeper and deeper into the pockets of their unsuspecting customers.
