Cloudflare really likes to publish new projects, but improving them in the future is not really their style. Some examples:
- They launched Cloudflare Web Analytics in 2020, but it still does not support basic things such as UTM parameters or custom events
- With wrangler (their CLI), you still cannot undeploy a Cloudflare Page
The last commit to wrangler was 2 hours ago?

That’s exactly the point.
Wrangler, being cloudflare’s primary CLI tool, is a microcosm of exactly the problem GP was articulating: it’s focused way more on adding new commands than improving existing ones.
Many products, even supposedly “GA” ones, still lack basic operability via wrangler because instead of finishing building out its capabilities to manage existing services, they prioritized adding rudimentary support for new ones.
Nah, you don't get to claim they don't work on improving their products, and then handwave away actual updates to it with "yeah but those aren't the improvements I wanted". That's just life and priorities.
Abandoning something, and not making the changes you want to see are entirely different things.
Sure he does.
It's not handwaving to complain that shipped features are never completed and a functional CLI for fundamental and critical tasks is never delivered.
I suspect CF is their future CLI.
