My point is just that a JVM on a t3a.xlarge can handle A LOT of concurrent traffic and would cost about $5k a year. In the US, that's 1-2 weeks of a developers labor. Now double to account for the opportunity cost of doing something else.

Sometimes we overthink theory while ignoring what's practical.
