This is probably a savvy move in that it's basically a huge price break for small and mid-size enterprises (my CF bill could drop from like $3K to near zero). The big players with those $10K, $100K, or whatever per month won't get a significant cut here. But I'm also guessing that those small and mid-size customers are exactly Cloudflare's main sales funnel. Their entire existence is based on giving inexpensive power tools that can be configured instantly. Anyone spending >$10K/mo on egress is more likely already set on AWS as a strategic vendor, have a multi-year lock-in deal and are more likely using the pro-level tooling you can get in Cloudfront. They are far less likely to unwind a giant pile of infrastructure for small cost savings anyway.
