I understand that one wants some rate limiting so that others don't just use this as a backend for their own service causing every single request for their service to also create an API request.
But this is as simple and resource unintensive as it gets for an HTTP server. 10 requests per minute is just silly.
Also could it be that the limit isn't enforced against the origin IP address but against the whole Cloudflare reverse proxy?
10 requests per minute per IP is plenty enough to play around with and have a little fun. For anything more than that you could (should!) host it yourself.
