They've "invested 5 million engineering hours" which is impressive, but are the design changes impossible for Apache Kafka to adopt?

I’m curious what the cost difference is for 10x faster speed?

There is no difference in cost than the current price. FWIW, customers can satisfy the latency at a lower CKU as indicated in the blog.
