Well that's still phyiscal hardware that needs to be bought. But you're right if they still fit in their cage and are under their power consumption it's just the one-time buy and they don't eat a higher monthly fee.

Plus if they're using virtualized hardware (which I think I read a few years ago they were) then it's even easier to launch a new set of hosts.
I may be wrong, but IIRC the current infrastructure that houses the P99 servers has plenty resources to handle an additional server. It's likely just the cost of spinning up a new VM.
