Is there any reason to not use R2 over a competing storage service? I already use Cloudflare for lots of other things, and don't personally care all that much about the "Cloudflare's near-monopoly as a web intermediary is dangerous" arguments or anything like that.

One major thing that R2 doesn't have is big data distributed table support. E.g. you can use BigQuery to query data on GCS, or you can use Athena on S3.
