It has other benefits. Those big providers see a huge amount of exit traffic and can potentially do correlation against that.
I disagree on 'huge'. If you worry about i.e. Amazon hosting to much exit bandwidth you have to worry about many other* ASes first, and even then, banning them all completely (exit prob = 0) isn't probably a wise strategy.
I'm not talking about those providers hosting exit nodes. I'm talking about general web sites and resources hosted by them and the traffic that goes there.

I'm confused. You're worried about people hosting clearnet websites with cloud hosting providers? Or non-exit relays?
