Are you indicating that Cloudflare's implementation isn't truly fully post quantum secure because of lagging certificate standards/technology?

Yes, although I wouldn't say "truly" because they haven't intimated that it is. I'm not claiming any malfeasance on Cloudflare's part: they have been very explicit about the fact that the PQ components deployed so far are only in the key exchange. Bas Westerbaan has a great post on the Cloudflare blog about the state of PQ in 2024.
