Server boost to allow more participants in a video call

We started using Discord for educational purposes, more precisely we offer an online course to researchers. We are very happy of Discord overall, but:

1. we cannot use Discord to have a video call with our 30 participants

2. we would like to contribute to Discord and we would be happy to pay to get a boosted server.

The current improvements provided by a server boost are completely useless for us. Why not giving the option to pay for an increased number of participants in a video call? For example, pay 10$/month to have up to 50 participants in a video call. This would be in line with other solutions, like zoom.

  Video participants are limited for technical reasons, not for payment related reasons.

  I know, that's what I wrote as well.

  What are the technical reasons that block it? I suppose it's only a matter of server resources (more cpu time et. sim). Otherwise this (https://www.theverge.com/2020/3/12/21176323/discord-go-live-streaming-feature-coronavirus-covid-19) would have not been possible.

  So I am asking: is it possible to give a chance to pay to rise this limit?
