I still don’t understand your point. With a firewall on the router, there’s no difference between IPv4 and IPv6. Both are firewalled at the router. Where are the “bugs and vulns”?
If you mean my original point of the firewall not being enabled by default, I haven’t seen that recently. It was a problem historically.
Mmm whole new class of bugs and vulns being introduced in one statement.
Now my 3d printer needs its firewall babysat. So does my smart fan. Excellent idea.
Homes and businesses should be islands.
The firewall is on the router.

yes, that’s my point, because the devices can’t be trusted to firewall themselves.

You can have IPv6 on your router, and an isolated network. It’s just not necessarily what’s done by default.

NAT is a blessing protecting the consumer from neglegent manufacturers
Having a default firewall is also a blessing, which all good routers should do. NAT is a curse.
