> while it’s tempting to use the infinitely-scalable object storage (like S3), the good old block storage is just cheaper and more performant

How is it cheaper? Object storage is cheaper per GB. Does using s3 have another component that is more expensive, maybe a caching layer? Is the storage format significantly less efficient? Are you not using a vpc enpoint to avoid egress charges?
