You're suffering from survivorship bias. You know that old adage about the bullet holes in the planes, and someone pointed out that you should reinforce that parts without bullet holes, because these are the planes that came back.
It's the same thing here. Do you think other providers are better? If people moved to other providers, things would still go down, more likely than not it would be more downtime in aggregate, just spread out so you wouldn't notice as much.
At least this way, everyone knows why it's down, our industry has developed best practices for dealing with these kinds of outages, and AWS can apply their expertise to keeping all their customers running as long as possible.
