I think they are just referring to their paid plans. That they have a business model. Of course the features are better on paid Cloudflare plans.

Today I switched my laptop to Cloudflare DNS over HTTPS. (DoH)

I used dnscrypt-proxy listening on port 53.
which forwards all queries to cloudflare using DoH (you can use other services too if you want)

Using dnscrypt-proxy means that all applications / programs on my system uses DoH not just Firefox.

Last thing that is left now is to switch to ESNI. (Encrypted SNI)
