If I'm paying a company that chose Cloudflare, and my SLA with that company entitles me to some sort of compensation for outages, then I expect that company to compensate me regardless of whose fault it is, and regardless of whether they were compensated by Cloudflare. I can know that the cause of the outage is Cloudflare, but also know that the company that I'm paying should have had a backup plan and not be solely reliable on one vendor. In other words, I care about who I pay, not who they decide to use.
