Vendor lock in can be expensive, but spreading yourself across vendors can also be expensive. There are lots of events that are free if you stay in the walled garden, but the second you starting pulling gigs & gigs of data from AWS S3 into GCP (or whatever), that can get pricey real fast.
In general I agree with you. In practice, the more practical approach may be to focus on making more money & not fussing too much w/ vendor costs & whatever strategy you choose to use. It's easy to pay a big vendor bill when there's a bigger pile of cash from sales.
