> Following the Aurora recommendations would lead to a minimum marginal cost of over $1,050 per customer to achieve performance and security isolation at the database level.

Where does the $1,050 come from?

It comes from the minimum ACU requirement per isolated cluster.

Even if scale to zero is eventually supported, some minimum capacity will still be required to avoid cold start latency.
