> I feel like Cloud means something now [...] Cloud kind of means that it's a service hosted somewhere on the Internet, that you don't control directly

Hasn't it meant that for many decades now? Originating as a cloud symbol on network diagrams, but not long after used as a word when people wanted to talk about said diagrams. I certainly remember using it in the 90s, so it has meant that for at least that long. You make it sound like we've only recently come to this determination.
