I think this is actually the failure mode for companies like AWS: they may earnestly be so large/complex that no well-intentioned crusader can push through an improvement like this.
My gut is that this is actually the cause of most of the “evil” things that “large” companies do, where eventually they get so big and/or complicated that organizing an organic positive change isn’t plausible.
