Maybe there’s something I’m missing here

SFP direct attach, you don't need a switch or transcievers, only two QSFP-DD ports and a cable. Also this is a thought exercise not a budget meeting. Start out with "We have this dual socket EPYC system here with full 12TB memory and need to double that". You have *rolls dice* 104 free PCIe5 lanes, go.
