If it is already in a DB, why wouldn’t that be treated as just a DB in the now peered Lightsail VPC?

Your options are severely limited for Lightsail; it maxes out at 8 GB RAM and 240 GB storage for a DB.
Isn’t that enough for a starter project as a hobbyist?
Yes, but when your starter project takes off and you start to get serious traffic, there’s no good path to migrate off. It’s all very manual, and involves a fair amount of downtime unless you have the requisite knowledge to set up logical replication; even then, unless you know how to chain replication, you’re going to thrash your buffers, and cause slow queries for existing traffic.
