I have heard of several cloud screw-ups as well, leading to charges of several thousands.
On one side this can happen if you experiment something outside of the free machine(s), on the other side you have all the reporting and notification tools to avoid surprises.
Nonetheless, I still see your point, reason why I prefer to use an almost dry revolut prepaid for all the cloud accounts instead of my main credit card.
