Correct, I specified both firewalls have an inbound default deny, accept only 
related/established.

The standard CPE configuration for any NAT scenario, and the usual standard for 
any non-NAT scenario as well. 

NAT allows me to *bypass* this.

What inbound firewall rules? The requirement was that the firewalls are 
identical except for NAT. If there's an inbound firewall rule, it's present on 
the NAT firewall too.
