I believe it'll lead to much higher costs, CO2 emissions, and other issues, simply because this architecture will require more message passing, wasted bandwidth, will be less reliable, and have higher operational complexity. I get that those in decision-making power aren't usually technologically adept at figuring out solutions for these issues, but they should invest in solutions first.

I would predict that data localization leads to data traveling shorter distances because most people access their local region rather than everything going to us-east-1.
