I use cloudflare precisely because I don't want clients hitting the server directly. That's its entire purpose. For both caching and anti-ddos reasons.

rydre is specifically talking about the perspective of someone running a non-cloudflare CDN or possibly a site that does their own CDN with DNS rather than anycast because they explicitly don't want to use cloudflare for whatever reason. They are not talking about someone just hosting a site.
