It shows the danger of the “but it’s a private company they can do what they like” attitude.
The site’s DNS was also blocked. In other words their address was seized (or locked to be more accurate). This meant that even with a server up and running it could not be found. They were effectively unpersoned from the Internet. It could happen any site, including this one, all without the intervention of some big bad government.
A technical note: you could use only an IP address but that leaves the site open to DDOS attacks (the thing Cloudflare protects from)

Daily Stormer did reappear at a .lol address. Whatever you thing of Daily Stormer that is a bit of a LOL.
True, but DNS is an integral part of cloudflare's service. The reason they handle the DNS is to deal with DNS DDoS attacks as well as server attacks. We almost never change our IP. All connections from your browser or a DDoS attacker are to an IP. Whether they look that up first is mostly irrelevant unless they are doing DNS DDoS. Our attackers are attacking the server, so DNS is not relevant.
