More specifically: if the majority of customers were going to see lower bills from Google, even if the top N% would see higher bills, you can bet that the headline would be "New pricing structure reduces bills for most customers".

So a very large number of people who "have Google Cloud accounts" may see costs go down. But the costs will go up for all the customers heavily investing in Google Cloud and using Google Cloud for storage of a lot of data. So the overall outcome will be more money for Google, in an update that claims a cost reduction for a large number of users.
