Possibly silly question, and not specific to this DB offering, but why is it a good decision to connect to your DB over the Internet vs keeping it in the same data center as your db clients, given the network-latency based performance hit I believe it causes?

They usually deployed to the same region like any other database not colocated with the clients. With vpc peering there should be no difference.
