Only true if your audience doesn't require Edge distribution, also if your Origin can handle the increased load and security issues, also if you don't use any advanced features (routing, edge compute...).
If your site is only hosted on one server and it catches fire, you can swiftly reinstall on a new server and change the IP your domain is pointing to, too... Still a single point of failure.
Yes, everything in the world is a single point of failure and has always been, if we look at things that way. But if it can be remedied quickly, then it's not a huge concern.
If I had pointed my name servers somewhere else, then that of course would be the new single point of failure. You can't escape it, no matter how much hacker snark and down votes you have.

Not if you’re using Workers/Pages!
But you didn't, so Cloudflare ended up being a single point of failure for half the internet.
