I think tonymet meant he didn't understand why cloudflare didn't allow using ssh -R instead of cloudflared to create the tunnel, not not using a tunnel at all.

		For me, it’s as much about ease of use as much as it is about minimizing attack surface area. Also the lifetime I need the connection open. For something quick, ssh tunnel. For something normies use, reverse proxy. Ain’t trying to teach my parents about IP addresses and port numbers.
