The number of normies visiting urls directly from a CDN is a rounding error.
Non technical users like pronounceable domain names. It's why we aren't just using IP addresses.
CAS is intimidating to non-technical types.
Pronounceable names can point to a content address, the same way they can point to an IP address. For example, https://dnslink.dev points a DNS name to a content address; git refs point to git objects; etc.
