Been there, done that. And of course you are 100% right.
It's just that I prefer bigger set of reliable nodes than a smaller set of high performance clusters. Of course both are needed, but spending money wisely, I would rather say that it's up to the dapps, so when they scale up, they also contribute to a decentralized infrastructure. That way it will grow organically with the projects themselves.

If the proposal gets funded, the end goal is to have more nodes in more parts of the world, serving different populations.

In all honesty, the proposal itself is simply a case of:
