> I can put that controller into my own home and operate it

Assuming that you can control the stateful firewall that's running on the
edge routers.  Recall that the edge router is not necessarily on the local
link, and that there can be multiple edge routers.

(I see that hnet-full in OpenWRT/LEDE installs a thing called
"minimalist-pcproxy", but I have no idea what it does and whether it
handles multiple edge routers correctly.)

(In order to keep the discussion at the high intellectual level customary
for this group, I suggest that all mentions of uPNP be banned.  PCP
(formerly NAT-PMP) is the Standards Track protocol for punching holes in
stateful firewalls and NAT boxes, and unlike uPNP it actually makes
sense.)
