why are oribital datacenters favored by lower financing costs? Is this assuming that the full project cost is locked up during permitting? Land costs I can see, but how much of a center buildout is that these days?

Rates drive permitting costs. If rates are 1%, a 3-year delay is tolerable. If they’re 5%, that might crash your economics on its own.
