A bit OT, but what's up with this usage of Amazon EC2 tiers as a unit of computational power?

i think it’s a combined “fixed cost” rather than just computational power... like you could do it with x, thus it should cost at most y

similar to saying that you could do it with a raspberry pi

It is a clearly priced unit of computational power maybe?
