The serverless graphic had more arrows than the server based one. I'm not sure that is an argument for serverless being simpler.
The serverless functions take up to 1s to boot. It is not fair to compare that to a VM that is on all the time. We should compare it to a container that is booted on demand. Right now only Heroku does that. At GitLab we're considering adding idling by sponging requests https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ee/issues/3712
