that would be fine, except for a few small points:
1. outside testing using specialized tools
2. access to third point(s) of reference for network continuity
3. ability to run some services "off circuit" (such as a private bt tracker or
webspace or the like).

There are a lot of other reasons.

I did find the problem with pf though. seems that between the version on 3.7
OpenBSD and 3.8, there was a change in how the block filter works relational
to everything else. :(

will have to research how to mitigate the fault now.
