The following is general and is not directed at Cloudflare. I know some people don't think errors in the reverse DNS are not critical but if you are delegated a zone it is your responsablity to ensure your servers are correctly serving that zone regardless of where it is in the DNS heirarchy. Failure to do that causes additional work for recursive servers. If you don't want to serve a zone then remove the delegation.
You are assuming that an authoritative server operator has some way to know all the zones people delegate to their servers, and remove such delegations if they don't want to handle them. That is a wrong assumption.
They have methods. They choose not to use them. See RFC 1033 COMPLAINTS then after that the court system. Mark
