I don’t live in this space, so maybe I have unreasonable expectations (or I’m reading the benchmark wrong), but is 10GB/sec of 64MB objects streaming out of each 96(48+HT?)-core hefty AWS server particularly impressive?

10GB/s is about the most you can expect from a 100G NIC (I know line rate is 12.5) and AWS makes you buy the whole machine if you want 100G so maybe they don't need all those cores.

You could compare to their December 2019 blog post:

It reads like they roughly doubled the read (GET) throughput for 32 nodes. Though I don't know how much of that would be AWS improvements vs MinIO improvements.

AWS drive speed has not changed much, neither is their network for the same instance and model.
