You cannot use the cloud systems without paying; how on earth do you figure I’m not a customer from what I wrote?

Because you said you're "self hosted" on 'some cloud'. You don't need to pay Elastic if you're self-hosted and not using the Elastic Cloud - you can just download it and use it for free.
They could be paying Elastic for gold/plat/etc licenses on their self hosted instances or “self hosted, some cloud” could mean they run mostly self hosted with some Elastic cloud usage.
