Thanks for the feedback. I don't think we're intentionally charging to turn off CNAME flattening. May be that we just don't expose that to lower plans because we're worried it'll confuse people. Raised the feedback with the team. In most cases, CNAME flattening is a significant win on performance. But understand when you'd want to do it in some cases.
Will also check on NS delegation. Again, my hunch is that we only charge for it because it's something that less sophisticated users we worry would get themselves in trouble messing with.
