Hello,
I understand that shared/flex clusters price storage based on uncompressed data+index usage, as per below documentation. However, the wording makes it seem specific to shared instances. Does the same billing method apply for dedicated clusters M10+ as well, or is it instead based on totalStorage() which factors in WiredTiger compression?

How does Atlas calculate storage limits for Flex Clusters?
Atlas calculates the storage limit for Flex clusters based on data usage, as opposed to the storageSize
metric used by non-Flex clusters (which includes compression). Atlas determines data usage by summing a cluster’s dataSize
and indexSize
. You can issue the db.stats() method to view the values of these fields.
