I'm not familiar with how S3 works in detail, but I imagine this could require additional API calls in the backend which increases the latency and resource usage of API requests. In the worst case, such a change could easily require Amazon to purchase dozens, if not hundreds of additional servers.

With the rate of AWS growth, they probably bought dozens more servers in the time it took you to write out your response. :)

Likely, but Amazon didn't get where they are by ignoring small costs.
