Of course it's more costly, you need to ensure state between locations so by virtue there's more infra to pay for.

It's not just a single instance too, there's generally a lot more infrastructure (db servers, app servers, logging and monitoring backends, message queues, auth servers... etc)

Also, people who can configure and maintain that infrastructure. It is more complicated, and it does require a different sort of person.

(And checkbox-easy is sweeping edge cases and failure modes under the rug)
