    the only reason i can think of is cgnatting ipv4 because of depleted pool. otherwise yea.

    i believe you can NAT ipv6 too, i mean so you use the router’s address only?

      You’d better hope that you can NAT ipv6 because if you aren’t behind a CGNAT and then your LAN is completely exposed without a NAT you’re very likely going to have devices exploited.

      NATs on people’s boundary has been doing pretty much all of the heavy lifting for everyone’s security at home.
