The issue with this approach (other than isolation) is that the largest tenant may be orders of magnitude bigger than others and still need more sharding to perform well while their smallest still needs to share a db. Have you looked at TiDB (MySQL) or CRDB (PG)?

Absolutely.

Thanks for the suggestion of TiDB, haven't previously considered this but it looks interesting, will take a closer look.
