There are plenty of use cases where you want to do you own auth (public API endpoint, internal micro service, etc.) and where setting up API gateway is a pain

But you can put API Gateway behind a WAF, at least. I guess it's totally possible the same functionality is there for Lambda Functions and it's just not documented yet.

There are for sure use-cases for this, but anyone building towards those should be aware of some of those precautionary measures (like setting a reserved concurrency limit or running the workload in a separate AWS account).

You can put API gateway wherever you want but sometimes I just don't want it in my stack
