I agree with you.. something else to keep in mind is that a lot of these startups have millions in funding too. If you're bootstrapping you can't afford to just rely on cloud services like AWS.
Picking the right infrastructure DOES matter if you're hosting it in 1 machine in your basement. It matters less when you got millions in funding, a team of developers, and machines with 32 GB of RAM in your disposal.
