That's technically Argo Tunnel tbf - their naming is worse than Google's, CF pushes pure Argo as better path from CF ingestion point to origin server because it now goes CF ingestion -> CF network -> Nearest CF network pop to origin -> origin, they claim non Argo is usually CF ingestion -> transit all the way -> origin which is probably more expensive for them too.
