Why fees diverge this much
Base, Optimism and Arbitrum roll up transactions off mainnet, so gas prices stay tiny even when Ethereum mainnet ticks up. Sidechains like BSC and Polygon run their own validators with different fee markets. Same 21k gas, very different price per unit of gas + native token price.
