It's not an "or" situation--these are orthogonal issues. The way support behaved is about AWS. Backups are about you. You should have backups and AWS should not arbitrarily terminate accounts without support recourse. We can discuss them separately if we want. I care about the uptime of my AWS accounts even though I have comprehensive backups.
With modern cloud computing is that enough? Can you migrate AuroraDBs, Lambdas, Kinesis configs, IAM policies, S3 bucket configs, Opensearch configs to another cloud platform easily? I suppose if you're comfortable going back to AWS after they randomly delete all your data then the remote backups will be helpful, but not so much if you plan to migrate to another provider.
