The multiple download buttons is not a dark pattern to prevent you from downloading your data, it’s just bad UX, it’s a feature you add to check a legal box and it doesn’t get priority for usability. Probably someone just shrugged, this is good enough and moved on. They should definitely give you it all in one zip file but “Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by a developer rushing to get something done by making it just barely usable” (the fact I worked at AWS as a development manager has nothing to do with the above and is solely my opinion)
