For us blast radius is a reason to intentionally limit the size of our servers. We could have smaller fleets with bigger servers, but then if anything went wrong it would impact a larger number of customers.
That being said I'm partial of having fleets as small as possible to simplify operations. While trying different instance sizes, I found our bottleneck ended up being network. The largest instance types saturate the network first, and hence we can't use servers as efficiently.
