Agreed. I have a personal modem and a separate router with openwrt acting, at least in part, as a firewall. Then each host also has its own firewall for extra protection.
I agree, I’m a bit of a different case since I’m also colocating my equipment.
I run a UDM Pro for all my IPMI with a VPN into that subnet, but everything else is running with public IPs.
The question about firewall is weird. There are one or two more options between ISP router and running your own.

I use my ISP’s modem, and an edgerouter behind it.
At home I run my ISP modem with a UDM Pro behind it.
My data center setup is a bit more involved.
I don’t even have an ISP router at all, my personal router is plugged directly into the fibre terminator.
Same. My ISP router is sitting on a shelf unused.
