Undervolting is not running at max utilization by definition almost.

…but the real question whether you want to undervolt your asset if you’re renting it out is why bother? You probably expect to replace it anyway after it’s spec lifetime, for sure want to replace it when a more efficient solution is available since datacenters are power and volume constrained and customers care about performance much more than hardware longevity (otherwise they’d buy instead of rent).

Why bother saving opex and capex?

Just waste more money! It's easy.
