If I’m getting into esoteric features or some “big” features that don’t make sense locally, then I just spin up a real dev account of aws, so I know I’m getting the real experience.

The problem is that everybody needs different "core" features

For instance, I don't care about any of those features at all. But I would care a lot about EC2, RDS, and ElastiCache Redis
