Maybe just stating the obvious but the AI outage cascade was presumably just caused by a lot of enterprise customers shifting their loads to new models after the first one fell, right?

I would be very surprised if *enterprise customers* specifically shifted their loads between models. (More plausible if Anthropic customers switched between native / Bedrock / Vertex / ... - but almost definitely not to Sol in a matter of minutes?)
