I know this is a joke, but I’m glad this person wasn’t in charge of naming these services. Amazon’s concise and consistent names often translate directly to API calls, making it possible to guess CLI methods.

Solid point, but I'd like to offer that aws-cli has built in autocomplete, should help out with some of the 'guessing'
