you get the same problem with gp2 EBS storage when you have less than the maximum baseline performance. if you have sustained peak IO then the disk will eventually have a big performance drop. i guess people are less likely to hit this wall than the T2 CPU wall. it is worth checking how long you can run at peak load for your application before you get throttled and how your application behaves when it gets throttled.
