This is exactly correct.

But still bound to the same service limits, no?

I'm not sure what you are referring to (pricing or service quotas?, I will assume the latter), but I think it depends on the service. For some setting the service quota will be per region and for others it will be global.

One I know that is for sure regional is the limit reserved concurrent executions of Lambda functions.

Service limits for regional services like EC2 are regional.

Service limits for global services like Organizations appear to only be manageable from us-east-1.
