makes no sense that google is behind all this, considering twitch(which uses AWS) and Microsoft outlook(Azure) also were having issues around the same time

Twitch and Outlook probably have an indirect dependency on GCP. Say, one of their third parties uses Cloudflare which uses GCP.
It's assumed that the "external storage backend" is Google Cloud Storage, since they also use it for Durable Objects storage: https://youtu.be/C5-741uQPVU?si=yOX-6gRzTbIhh34h&t=1725 (this video is worth the watch on their neat arch for Durable Objects SQLite)
Similarly, their data subprocessors lists Google for the developer platform platform: https://www.cloudflare.com/gdpr/subprocessors/cloudflare-ser...
And aligns with the Google Cloud Storage incident: https://status.cloud.google.com/incidents/ow5i3PPK96RduMcb1S...
