Isn't it? I was under impression that the problem is the cost storing all this stuff

Nope, you can't just look at cost of storage and try to minimize it. There are a lot of other things that matter.

What I am asking is, what are the other concerns other than literally the cost? I have interest in this area and I am seeing everyone saying that observability companies are overcharging their consumers.
