But egress fees only apply to S3 transfers outside AWS?

So which is it? Data transferred to the Internet? Or data processed internally?

Obviously they break the problem down into questions like "what's the maximum that could be transferred between any two components? what's the most expensive components this transits?" and pick the most expensive answers without any attempt at coherence.

Right now some class action lawyer is drooling.
