If you don't use vpc endpoints, usually you end up having to open network traffic to all of a particular aws service, not just yours.

This means as an attacker, I can also go spin up (s3/lambda/etc) and if your app was vulnerable in some way, I could exfil data to those aws services (or leverage them in RFI/CSRF/other attacks) in a way that shouldn't be possible.
