Comes around $8-11 of egress monthly traffic on AWS. I would think twice before signing up for a service that charges me $10/month - not sure why this should be any different.
Also, how do you opt-out? Imagine a random developer in a startup, running a Gitlab instance and then pushing a Go module there and only to be left with inexplicable traffic pattern(and bill). I have no skin in the game but this default _does not_ sound reasonable to me, whichever way you slice it.

As an aside, I have done this and I do not have the problem. The most interesting question for me in all of this has always been, what triggers Google's request load?

AWS gouges the crap out of people with their egress fees, though. You can get 20TB of transfer for ~$5 a month from Hetzner plus a server to go with it.
