Turning on public access for an R2 bucket yields an r2.dev URL that is convenient for testing. Cloudflare rate limits that hostname and states it is not for production use. It also sits outside zone features, so cache rules, WAF rules and transform rules do not apply, and every request is a billed Class B operation with no cache in front of it.
Attach a custom domain on a zone in the account instead. That routes the bucket through the Cloudflare cache, which removes both the rate limit concern and most of the Class B operations for repeat reads, and it makes cache rules, transform rules and access controls available. Public access can be turned off again at any time, and doing so affects neither presigned URLs nor the Workers binding.
