This is an interesting point. As recently as mid-2023 us-east-2 was 3 campuses with a 5 building design capacity at each. I know they've expanded by multiples since, but us-east-1 would still dwarf them.

Makes one wonder, does us-west-2 have the capacity to take on this surge?

us-west-2 is indeed very large, but will still not be able to take a full failover from us-east-1
