No, that is not the point. The point is that if
A: You need high performance no matter the cost, you are unable to get it from STORJ (according to @Knowledge numbers, it is 16x slower)
B: You have a VPS on DigitalOcean or OVH or any other provider, their “local” S3 bucket will offer a better price/performance ratio.
B is the reason for this post Update Proposal for Storage Node Operators - #767 by IsThisOn that everyone will ignore and wonder why customers don’t switch 
In my dreams, STORJ runs these benchmarks and promote ads like “Hey DigitalOcan users, did you know that our STORJ S3 bucket offers twice the performance for half the price? Try it today with this 10% promocode”
