I had come to a similar conclusion a few years back: It is not very
economic to run ephemereal buildroots (and anything like it) between
two (or more) "significant locations" of which one end is located in
a Large Cloud datacenter like EC2/AWS/etc.

As for such usecases, me and my surrounding peers have used (other)
offerings where there is 50 TB free network/month, and yes that may
have entailed doing more adminning than elsewhere - but an admin 
appreciates $2000 a lot more than a corporation, too.
