I get how you'd feel that way, given that you've been part of the Tor
community for quite some time.

On the other hand, people create threads frequently about the fate of
their relay(s) hosted by various firms. And, with few exceptions, I
don't recall seeing replies here from those firms. In a few cases,
operators have posted messages received from providers. But there have
rarely been replies. Once or twice in the last few years, as I recall.

I can't say that I really care. Traffic and storage are inexpensive
these days, and it's easy to filter messages. So what's the harm?
