Interesting, I was wondering whether using a shared VPC would have been the better solution, but it turns out they use a shared VPC per region and peer them via TGW. IMHO it'd be worth peering those regions individually, to get rid of that potential bottleneck. Of course you loose quite a few interesting features.
