There appears to be an inconsistency in the encryption information for the Lightsail Databases.

On the product page, it is stated that the cheapest database is not encrypted (https://aws.amazon.com/lightsail/pricing/):

Please clarify what kind of encryption the cheapest instance has? In order to comply with regulations, I need to ensure that both encryption at rest and in transit are enabled.

Hello.

Even with RDS, instance types with low performance such as "db.t2.micro" cannot be encrypted.
I think that the Lightsail managed database has a similar design behind the scenes as RDS.
Therefore, we expect that Lightsail, which has the lowest performance, may not be able to encrypt.
