Agree with this. Snowflake has best-in-class dev experience and performance for Spark-like workloads (so ETL or unconstrained analytics queries).
It has close to worst-in-class performance as a serving layer.
If you're creating an environment to serve analysts and cached BI tools, you'll have a great time.
If you're trying to drive anything from Snowflake where you care about operations measured in ms or single digit seconds, you'll have a bad time and probably set a lot of money on fire in the process.
