At those prices, it doesn’t take a lot of XCs to justify the cost of
building an additional datacenter.

These sorts of prices are generally visible either in cable landing
stations, or data centres ran by submarine cable operators offering
access to their cable system.

A competing data centre in the same country will not provide cheaper
access to one or a (limited) set of submarine cable systems that employ
this stifling x-connect pricing model.
