“Some exceptions may apply.”

I don't believe that's the reasoning; and although I worked at AWS in the past I don't know for sure what's the reasoning behind choosing "Amazon" or "AWS" prefix for a service name.

For example, RDS is definitely a service built on top of other core services (EC2, S3, KMS, Route 53), its name is "Amazon RDS" and not "AWS RDS".
