eicnix says here "Droplets are a single-point-of-failure".
I don't see any direct explanation as to how these LBs aren't. It's limited to a single region for backend droplets, and who knows how fragile they are.
Putting up a droplet with caddy/nginx/apache and acting like a reverse proxy, depending on your usecase, could be 75% cheaper than this solution offered.
