Hi MJ — I’d say your plan is okay, but you will have to set the SFP module’s MAC address to the same as the ONT.
I used the ONT and then routed in via Ethernet, first with Community, and now with both Hyperoptic and G.Network. While I do agree it is a single point of failure, it’s also a clear demarcation point for the provider’s responsibility and is officially supported by all three providers.
