Agreed. As a software dev, a huge portion of my job has been fixing exception handling and adding centralized error handling to figure out what bugs my users are experiencing. Many devs I worked with seemed to only care about the happy path.

this is not an “AI” data center
I was a bit more high-level in the supply chain planning side (more on the long-term supply planning than rack planning), but AWS definitely has different rack types including AI rack types with dense GPU hardware setups. Are they slicing the buildings by rack type or is it heterogeneous with some AI racks + compute racks?
It's a question of security risk profiles.
Security ultimately often times comes with a tradeoff for user experience or privacy.
How does device integrity checks materially affect the security posture for theft when considering this system? Presumably the security checks for remotely unlocking a car is based around credentials and authN/authZ for the unlock service call?
Enforcing client side security has entered the picture recently, but a lot of it comes from security checklists from people saying did you add this check? Sure adding a device integrity check may stop at least one malicious actor, but is it worth the cost? To most companies, they're going to say they don't understand or care about the impact.
They could just go back to key fobs since those can't run arbitrary code.
50k satellites? Who is going to pay for that much light? At least with Starlink/Satellite Internet there's wide spread demand from many different consumers, but for sunlight on demand? That just sounds like marketing to investors instead of a legitimate plan.
