You can create/resize/delete non-root EBS volumes without any downtime of the attached host(s), as far as I'm aware? Pretty sure I've done so in the past. You'll have to resize2fs or whatever but it shouldn't take any downtime.

EBS is not "compute-attached". GP means the disks that appear to be local to the instance.

EBS volumes appear local to the machine.

I think there is a miscommunication.
EBS “appears to be local” but it is actually networked attached storage. Instance storage (is that the correct name?) is where the VM and the storage are on the same physical server and it should be faster.
