You’re joking but yes this does actually happen lol

I remember an issue where Amazon said it took a long time to fix some problem because, despite all their dev tools not being linked to AWS, their door system ran in it and the developers couldn't get to their computers.

Yeah those are the foundational services like EC2 powers DynamoDB and everything runs on Route53 which is powered by EC2. Containers on ECS and EKS are just EC2 instances.
