I’m not a target user, but you mentioned the tagging problem and git integration, perhaps you could infer at least the git user responsible for each resource cost (git blame the TF file and identify the username who added the resource) as a minimum amount of detail provided out of the box?

Interesting idea! The pull request authors are shown out of the box but we hadn't thought of using git to find the user for each resource on the main branch. Most organizations end-up tagging the resources with some sort of owner or team so they can group the costs using that and track it per team/service/product over time. That's often how FinOps teams start to create a sense of ownership for cloud costs amongst teams.
