Am I the only one who thinks the auto-zoom is too aggressive?

Ah, the classic "motion equals importance" logic. I've seen the same flawed thinking wreck cloud budgets.

Teams get excited about auto-scaling groups that spin up instances for every CPU blip, mistaking activity for actual load. Meanwhile, the real cost driver-a steadily growing, unattached EBS volume-sits there untouched, billing away. The algorithm zooms in on the noisy, expensive spike and misses the silent, persistent drain.

Your coffee mug is just the visual version of a random CPU spike. The tool is alerting on the wrong thing.
