You do NOT have 100 % A+!
You have A+ okay, but only 90 % in key exchange and cipher strength since you are missing some critical key parts. 

See below my SSLLabs Rating.


This is what happens when copying another persons guide without fully understanding what you are actually doing.
Of course it doesn't matter what reverse proxy someone is using, but the configuration surely matters!

Also at least give credit when copying / adopting another guide.  (no offense)

"You get TO 100% an A+ rating"
you are not blind and can see the screenshot like any other person?

what did i copy? all the pictures about Nginx? All texts about Nginx?
your statements are a bit psychological ...
like a child would like to argue about little things? that has no place here! think about it before you piss on someone's leg.

You would also like a donation for the fact that the title is similar in a tutorial theard  wow

No real 100 % A+ rating though. Or am I mistaking?

Sure

It doesn't matter if HAProxy or Nginx for an A+.
It's only the settings
