I am looking for technical products and I interpret "serverless" as marketing garbage, not as "I dont have to worry about the server". Call it managed DB as a service and you're more honest in your product offering. You're suffering marketing-speak in lieu of honesty for a technical product - bad plan, imo.

I am an engineer and to me "serverless" means I don't pay money when I'm not using it. Which I like.

I made another comment to this point, but I think you described it much more succinctly.
