So you say that if you don't make an additional investment in backup infrastructure your data is at risk... Sounds pretty similar to self-hosting, doesn't it?

More like the "cloud" provider should have multiple locations and redundancy in place.

That will also depend on if you include that in your subscription and pay for it. Some plans exclude that in the cheaper tiers if I remember correctly
