Yes, their oidc setup was probably their last good feature back when they were actually delivering features back in 2020ish. Everyone else copied it within a few months though.
jdeastwood··on AWS Lambda Silent Crash – A Platform Failure, Not an Application Bug [pdf]
I actually witnessed almost exactly the same thing happen in my org recently. AWS support was far _too_ nice and actually did escalate to the service team (or claimed to).

There was a few days of back and forth which should have been resolved by saying "please read the how lambda works" section of the documentation.
