My CF billing seems to be "day of the month" which might explain the differing prices based on the month; R2 storage is supposedly "GB-month" but I wouldn't be surprised if it's actually GB-hour on the backend. Does it follow that scale (e.g. June with 30 days should be ~96.8% the cost of May's 31 days)?

Interesting ... I checked and the difference is closer to 5% ($0.99 May vs $1.04 June), and June's invoice was actually higher than May's. They are billing that amount because the storage amount itself is fluctuating (alternating 66 and 69 GB) with zero writes / deletes to the bucket since around March, and staying well within the free tier for reads. Will probably have to leave it be as one of the mysteries of life :)
