The threat surface for Amazon et al. is greater than the threat surface for a server on a LAN.

A "cloud" server at Amazon et al. has to be accessible by the intended users. That means that it must be visible to, and potentially accessible to, others on the same network, which in this case is the entire internet. This is true even if there is a portal which regulates access to your server; if it is accessible to you, it may be accessible to others.
True. There are pros and cons for going to cloud. If they were all pros, everyone would do it. If they were all cons, no one would do it. But each company will have to assess the pros vs cons. But to say someone is stupid for moving to the cloud is in itself a stupid statement.

You can still do this in the cloud.

Everyone is born right handed. Only the strongest overcome it.
Fight for left-handed rights and hand equality.
