First of all, I know that not dropping SYN/FIN isn't really a big deal, it
just makes no sense. But since it doesn't make any sense, I don't see
the reason why not to discard them.
Perhaps because you are under the erroneous impression that such

That might be the case yeah.. Yet, if I have TCP_DROP_SYNFIN in my
kernel and
sysctrl net.inet.tcp.drop_synfin set to 1, shouldn't it drop all SYN/FIN
packets no
matter how my firewall is configured?
