The bartender example is so wrong that it has wrapped around into rightness.

What really happens is that the bartender signals the cooler to throw out said patrons to settle it some place where it isn't their liability. It goes to the street, who knows where and what they'll do to each other.

And that's pretty much what cloudflare is doing here, saying "you can't do this in here" and now we get to see where the chips fall.

This is more accurate, thank you. Either way, not a failure of law enforcement. (It is if the bartender calls the cops, they do nothing, and the victim turns up the next day in a hand basket.)
