> if this cold start latency is so important why chose function over elastic beanstalk or other auto-scaling type system? Pricing! It depends on the application, but there are some use-case where Lambda is way cheaper, so if we can also partially solve cold start latency, why not?

Way cheaper given a particular workload and access pattern*, Lambda is not magical and its pricing is tricky to figure out until you have something running.
