Do people really prefer to see vCPU pricing in per-second increments? Is this useful for any person?

Presumably no information is conveyed by the first 4 significant digits. And can anybody compare this pricing to e.g. AWS or Google Cloud? I have never known my compute cost to second resolution, so I'd need to do calculations to even ballpark this.

Suggestion: Don't obfuscate the price, just remove it. Clearly you don't really want casual browsers to know how much you're charging[1]. Which: fine, this is the current trend in tech. So just remove the pricing and put your calendar link there as a CTA instead. Be classy. Don't play games with your audience.

1 - anybody who plugs this into a calculator will a) understand why you don't show monthly pricing and b) think this is screamingly expensive. Which reinforces my recommendation to just replace the price with a CTA and your calendar link.
