High 3 and 4 figures wouldn't occur for personal backups though. I've done a big retrieval once and the cost was literally just single digits dollars for me. So the total lifetime cost (including retrievals) is cheaper on S3 than R2 for my personal backup use case. This is why I struggle to take seriously any analysis that says S3 is expensive -- it is only expensive if you use the most expensive (default) S3 product. S3 has more options to offer than than R2 or other competitors which is why I stay with S3 and pay <$1.00 a month for my entire backup. Most competitors (including R2) would have me pay significantly more than I spend on the appropriate S3 product.
