Multi-cloud rarely costs more in compute. It costs more in identity, network, backup and monitoring done twice. One inventory, one owner per account.
Nobody set out to run three clouds. It happened one project at a time.
Each decision was reasonable on the day it was taken. What accumulated is three different ways of doing the same four things: identity, network, backup and monitoring, plus two or three sets of skills to keep current. That is where the real recurring cost sits.
