 Tell me about it. Except "local" need not (solely) mean "only on my local machine": https://vaporware.network

 That's cool. You can be as local or not as fits your preference. 
My point is that "logical machine" need not necessarily be 1:1 with "physical machine". Our goal is to make that distinction as fungible as the user wants (including not at all)

 To be clear, personally I would only use cloud services for encrypted-at-rest redundancy. In case my local machine explodes I could restore.
