How would you measure that realistically? How durable is Backblaze or Azure?

Cloudflare has been reliable on storage adjacent uses (caching) for a long time. Presumably you're more likely to be the cause of errors than R2 is by a few orders of magnitude.

What I mean is that if you have a claim for eleven 9's of durability for a product that's 3 years old you have to take their word for it.

You can't really check the SLA as being realistic
