There’s zero reason why AWS can’t pop up a warning if it detects this behavior though. It should clearly explain the implications to the end user. I mean EKS has all sorts of these warning flags it pops up on cluster health there’s really no reason why they can’t do the same here.
To be fair, while EKS warnings are useful, I've grown a habit to ignore them completely, since I've seen every single RDS cluster littered with "create a read replica please" and "enable performance insights" bs warnings.
The second someone doesn’t pay attention to that warning and suffers an exfiltration, like the cap1 s3 incident, it’s aws’ fault as far as the media is concerned.
