>This worked well and was easy because Cloudflare could manage the certificates and connection security from incoming browsers. As a result of that work, the number of encrypted HTTPS connections on the entire Internet doubled at that time. However, the connections made from Cloudflare to origin servers still required manual configuration of the encryption modes to let Cloudflare know the capabilities of the origin.

Is Cloudflare actually trying to take credit for Let's Encrypt or am I misunderstanding what they're trying to say here?
