That's a good point... you mean like enterprises with big IT teams who want to in-house Cloudflare Workers and run it on their own infrastructure? That makes sense if they already have the network but not necessarily the easy to use APIs for serverless. Kinda a way to overlay new dev modalities onto old infrastructure, I suppose.

Not just old infrastructure, there are plenty of good reasons to run your own infrastructure beyond "that's what we've always done".

Edit: Good reasons not in the sense of "everyone should do it" but in the sense of "for some situations it's the right choice"
