Is transit the default path?

No. Peering in Miami is default; transit to São Paulo is overflow and is billed that way.

Does WAN on letter W share fate with other letters?

The control plane is shared. Data-plane queues for WAN stay isolated, so incident w-01 cannot drain neighbor letters.

WAN: Failure modes we actually see

Capacity notes for w-04 assume rainy-season power in Miami and festival peaks toward São Paulo. The failure we actually see is a single uplink, not a cartoon partition of the whole continent. Spare ports and a second provider sit on the same runbook.

WAN: How this letter ties to the rest

Handoff from letter W WAN into the rest of the platform uses the same request IDs as the gateway. Runbook w-05 names who accepts the ticket after São Paulo pages out. Santiago does not silently inherit the incident.

WAN: A note on cost and transit

Rollback for w-06 is a documented command, not a hope. Transit is billed as backup while WAN prefers peering in Santiago. If cost spikes, the runbook cuts overflow to Bogotá before touching customer prefixes.
