    Imagine you have dir1/dir2 with "directories" inside, each one with millions of "files"/objects. When you try to "ls" the dir1/dir2 by querying Prefix='dir1/dir2/' and Delimiter='/' S3 will still scan all the millions of objects starting with the prefix, and then filter out the ones that have a / after the prefix.
