The cost of someone to manage and support this in my org would cost more than it is worth.
Gitlab runners on an autoscaling group handles load for me and scales up and down with need. Took 2-3 hours to set up, and has lasted 2 years without incident.
The value for me is cost (especially in time) to implement, mental burden, and risk of delaying projects.

If you have very bursty workloads then scaling pays off. If you run your rick nice and warm even over nights and weekends then it's more economic to have self hosted I imagine.
