"offscale runs on a publicly reachable server" read as a demand offscale makes
and the easy route does not. It is not. Tailscale's coordination server is
publicly reachable too — they run it for you, and that is the entire difference
between option 3 and hosting it yourself.
Said that way round, the requirement stops being a reason not to self-host and
becomes what self-hosting means. Same sentence in all three places: the menu
entry, the branch taken when 1 is chosen, and the long answer.
