Communicating with strangers through a screen takes away a lot of awkwardness. That’s not strange. It doesn’t surprise me that you can be more emotionally open here. Personally I’m just very open in general.
My assumption is that the pattern you describe is possible/doable on certain scales and in certain combinations of technologies. But doing this across a distributed system with as many nodes and as many different nodes as CloudFlare has, and still have a system that can be updated quickly (responding to DDOS attacks for example) is a lot harder.
If you really feel like you have a better solution please contact them and consult for them, the internet would thank you for it.
