the Magic Cloud provider fails in a way that isn't possible to
anticipate because it's all black box.
Saving 12 months of opex $ sounds great, except when you lose 18
months of opex $ in 2 days completely outside of your ability to control.
I think for the vast majority of cloud users they'd do a way worse job
at uptime than the providers. Whether that applies to some telcos, I'm
not sure.
