The thing about an operation as big as Amazon is that one or two people work on one component of one thing. If the folks who work on that one thing both bail, it doesn't slow down Amazon or any of its constituent components overmuch. The way things are architected it can chug along for quite a while until somebody else is tasked with learning about and maintaining it.
