This definitely dates back to when offloading images and other static assets to S3 from your (era-appropriate) Apache or Varnish server was an optimization of the day...now, obsolete, as, at the time, there were not low-friction, lower-cost CDNs available, such as Cloudfront or Cloudflare.

Cloudfront as the CDN, backed with S3 for your static assets is still a very common pattern on AWS.

It is, but my point is referring to the time when there was no cloudfront.
