I think reverse proxies are middleboxes regardless if they have official
origin TLS certificates. From the TLS viewpoint they may be the endpoint
although from the HTTP viewpoint they are not.

A cache may be hired by a user, origin or even a network operator to act as a

Yes. And I am saying that the definition doesn't include a CDN as a
middlepoint.
Do user-provided reverse proxies have official TLS certificates with a SAN
field claiming to be the origin?
