So much cheaper than the UK.

It’s something like £2k ($2,500) for the fees (for 2.5-3years, depending on visa type), plus a buy in for NHS services, approximately £1k/year ($1,300 x 2.5-3) for the length of your visa.

6 years to become a citizen, if you’re not married to a Brit, or 5 if you are.

It is in excess of £10k over the 5-6 years to get to the point of permanent residence (£2,300) which you can then follow up with citizenship (£1,580).

I wish health care was ~$1k/year. That's less than a lot of insurance premiums alone.

True, although paying in upfront doesn’t exempt immigrants from also paying the relevant taxes that cover healthcare, no double taxation protections here.
