"paid" as in you have to pay per DDoS to the booter. CF business is not in getting money directly from the booters, but in acquiring many paid CF subscriptions from the sites that the booters can attack. Some of these booters can generate 100+Gbps UDP attacks.

Still doesn't make sense. CF alone doesn't effectively defend against DDoS attacks without somewhat complicated setup, CF is completely worthless when your backend is getting attacked.
I think you're seriously overestimating the amount of people pushed to use CF because of these booters.
Besides, do you feel that the situation would be any different if the booters weren't allowed on CF? CF is by no means important to their operations.
