This happened only in the phantasy world of deluded MBAs who were sold on the narrative of the cloud operators taking over their infrastructure management. If you ever worked on any of the hyperscaler-based infrastructure, it is actually more complex than the more simple on-premise setups people used to have. I am not saying it is bad that way, I actually enjoy working with the cloud more than with on-premise stuff, but just to highlight you are just making such a bad comparison here.
