Disclosure: I work on Google Cloud (and love the idea of Tarsnap, including the picodollars). What about if you were to age things into Nearline and Coldline using lifecycle policies? Also, someone claims you do multiple regions, which our "default" multiregional does at less than half the cost of S3. Admittedly we only recently (finally!) added per-object storage classes. But unless I misunderstand how your blocks work in tarsnap, wouldn't that be amenable to having some large portion as Nearline and possibly even Coldline? If not, I'd love to understand!
