My specific use case isn't really that interesting. Many use cases where a single AZ or region failure shouldn't stop business exist.

It is very, very rare from my professional ops/devops experience to see an org built to survive a region outage; the tools are there, the money/business case is not.

It doesn't have to be HA and replication. Sharding by customer would mean a region outage takes out only 1/N customers. That wouldn't have a higher cost, other than whatever dev effort is needed to work that way.
