Why account creating be part of landing zone or reference architecture? Why do I need to provide account numbers and pre-provision them ?

**From a customer** There are things delivered as part of the RefArch that need to be bootstrapped and it's easiest to have the accounts already created with Route53 zones already setup. In particular, you'll need to have the domains, Route53 zones, and accounts pre-created Gruntwork provides tools to make this bootstrapping process more straight-forward
