I just don't see this being true. Being "cloud agnostic" likely means it's an incredibly leaky abstraction where at the first sign of trouble, you're going to have to understand winglang + the specific provider API. Any IaC product requires you intimiately understand what it's actually doing if you care about security and performance. Just because it's a managed service doesn't mean you get to ignore all it's implementation detail, right?
All the cloud providers give you a function as a service, or a nosql database, or a file bucket: ignoring all the nuance as an agnostic is at a minimum leaving optimisation on the table and more likely dangerous and expensive, surely?
