Scale in a single closed off data-center does not improve the scaling of the fediverse. In fact it might kill off a lot of smaller fediverse instances and software that arn't able to keep up with the data-center firehose Meta is pointing at them if they are unlucky. As a result organic growth to scale will likely stop and only those that can throw lots of hardware at the problem will survive.
