Right, smooth migrations between different object storage providers was basically the one and only use case for adding the Seal functionality.
However, we believe that most customers will choose to instead just keep existing backups in place on a Sealed extent and let them expire on the "old" provider. This way you don't have to move TBs of backups around, which can take a lot of time and - as any data management operations - comes with an added risk of data loss/corruption. Plus, with some object storage this means incurring significant egress charges.
