How much does this additional strain on the water system end up costing the residents, both in terms of their monthly bills and the later infrastructure upgrades required? The data centers are shifting their true costs to the communities around them.

So true. Same with programming languages, too. Good engineers solve problems in the constraints they are given.
They say that is the intent, but they have zero evidence that the reorganization will in fact lead to "moving faster."
Why do you think their intent is to move faster?
If managers can slow you down, then they need to hire more people below them. That is a promotion for the manager.
Managers are actively trying to slow you down.
