And the day your VM host exits the market/bumps their prices/decided to pull the rug from under you, your backups that absolutely couldn't be made in the SaaS instance will magically continue to exist outside of your Cloud VM setup?

    Veeam for example can do that pretty well.
    So, yeah it can happen.
    Or you extract the data from backup and migrate it to the new host and import it.

    And thus administering the server yourself proved to be a waste of time and money as the SaaS was just as resilient? I'm still confused.

    Not if you needed it for a short time.
    If I need hardware for >5 years I'd buy hardware
    If I need the performance of it for just 1 month, why should I bother acquiring the hardware for multiple thousands?
