It's replies like these that make companies not want to share detailed postmortems. It's not crazy for many things in a incident to go wrong and for >0 of them to be external. It would be negligent for Cloudflare to not explicate what went wrong with the vendor which, I would note, reflects poorly on them: who picked the vendor? If anything, I would have liked to hear more on how Cloudflare ended up with a subpar vendor.

(none of this takes away from the mistakes that were wholly theirs that shouldn't have happened and that they should fix)
