It seems like target users would be something like industry and logistics handling? You need a moderate number of mobile clients, complex physical topology, and very good coverage? The number of sims, 10s to 100s, seems to low to get in to rfid/material handling territory.

if you will look at their use cases (https://aws.amazon.com/private5g/) , it's kinda all over. When it's actually better than well designed wifi for private deployment.. hard to say. especially given scarcity of hardware that supports it. for industrial deployments it's even overlaps with industrial 5g + slicing (or whatever it's name today) that telecoms really would like to sell.

sas operators had hope that it will be deployed in office buildings/etc to improve connectivity for people who are inside, but... wifi. also there is need in some roaming between building operator network and proper MNO (or mno deploying cbrs network in building, which is not cost effective). and there are also DAS/cellular repeaters/femtocells/etc.
