Ask HN: Azure has run out of compute – anyone else...
In the AWS context, they are, in fact. That's the original point of them - so during big AZ failures your reserved instances had first dibs on the available capacity.
The billing thing became more of the point as big AZ failures are so rare.

Non-zonal instance reservations do not reserve capacity.
