Some examples:

- They launched Cloudflare Web Analytics in 2020, but it still does not support basic things such as UTM parameters or custom events

- With wrangler (their CLI), you still cannot undeploy a Cloudflare Page

Yes, they cannot include everything, but enough that you do not _need_ third party packages.

Like no BYOIP prefixes at all? Since even one prefix should have shown that it would be deleted by that subtask...

From all the recent outages, it sounds like Cloudflare is barely tested at all. Maybe they have lots of unit tests etc, but they do not seem to test their whole system... I get that their whole setup is vast, but even testing that subtask manually would have surfaced the bug

Whether they still receive some high-quality ones...

But I'm sure the website still receives a lot of views, as it still is highly ranked in Google.
