Oh man, I have long been joking about the AWS UI. Like how it will gladly walk you through all the steps for launching a server and only at the very last step says “oh you don’t have permission to do that lol, get permission and start over”.

I compared[1] it to a bartender who walks you through an entire sale and only at the last second rejects your purchase for being underage (instead of denying you the at the initial request for something alcoholic).

Of course, that’s one of the minor things in the grand scheme.
