Does this reduce the operating costs of hosting OSM-based maps, since presumably they require less CPU spent on rendering and vectors consume less storage/bandwidth?

Yes, vector tiles are much easier to self host.

You have for example https://protomaps.com/ or https://openmaptiles.org/ or https://versatiles.org/ (random order).
