To be fair, it didn't help the provider's docs were inconsistent about whether dns-01 or http-01 was to be used.

I've done enough fighting with Certbot to learn that the path of least resistance is to use dns-01 with the cloudflare plugin, and just make a very limited access key and store it on the servers that I am using to renew the cert.
