The reason makes sense technically, since you have 0 usage for the environment at that point. Until there is actual usage, it will never trigger a threshold that would cause a scaling event. Looking at this from a user's perspective, I actually don't see an issue with this implementation. Does anyone know how AWS reacts in this scenario?
