One thing that most folks aren't aware is that Cloudflare registrar requires usage of their nameservers. It's understandable, they are selling domains without a markup and need to make money in other ways. For those that want to use a custom nameserver, Porkbun is a great choice.

What is their business model around having your DNS traffic? Selling your "who looked you up and how many times" data? I am struggling to see what secondary income this enables.

It makes it extremely easy (and therefore more likely) to use CloudFlare as a CDN/DDoS protection. Just a simple toggle, if they're your DNS server.
