The design has to be flexible so DIY w/local firewall is fine.
I'll disagree though that early & late majority care about firewalls.
They want high-quality access that is secure & private. Both of these
require high skill network engineers on staff. DIY is hard here.
Intrusion detection systems, etc. are non-trivial. The days of broadcast
NFL networks are over.
I disagree to with nobody wanting to pay for quality access to knowledge
based networks. Not that many years ago, nobody wanted to pay to teach
women to read either. Then, nobody wanted to pay for university. I grew
up in the latter and figured out that I needed come up with payment
somehow to develop my brain. Otherwise, I was screwed.
So, if it's a chatGPT, advertising system - sure wrong market. Free
shit, even provided by Google, is mostly shit.
Connect to something real without the privacy invasions, no queueing,
etc. I think it's worth it in spades despite the idea that we shouldn't
invest so people, regardless of gender, etc. can learn to read.

end users are still going to want their own router/firewall. That's
my point, I don't see how you can have that on-prem firewall while
having a remote radio that's useful.
I would adamantly oppose anyone I know passing their firewall off to
the upstream vendor. I run an MSP and I would offer a customer to
drop my services if they were to buy into something like this on the
business side.
So I really only see this sort of concept for campus networks where
the end users are 'part' of the entity.

It's not discrete routers. It's more like a transceiver. WiFi is
already splitting at the MAC for MLO. I perceive two choices for the
split, one at the PHY DAC or, two, a minimalist 802.3 tunneling of
802.11 back to the FiWi head end. Use 802.3 to leverage merchant
silicon supporting up to 200 or so RRHs or even move the baseband DSP
there. I think a split PHY may not work well but a thorough eng
analysis is still warranted.

Most people need high skilled network engineers to provide them IT
services. This need is only going to grow and grow. We can help by
producing better and simpler offerings, be they DIY or by service
providers.
Steve Job's almost didn't support the iPhone development because he
hated "the orifices." Probably time for many of us to revisit our
belief set. Does it move the needle, even if imperfectly?
FiWi blows the needle off the gauge by my judgment. Who does it is
secondary.
Bob
most people are unwilling to pay for those services also lol.
I don't see the paradigm of discreet routers/nat per prem anytime
soon. If you subtract that piece of it then we're basically just
talking XGSPON or similar.
