I prefer having a point-to-point /30 and having my assigned subnet
routed, myself. It lets me split my allocation up, abuse the
network/broadcast/router addresses (generally for DNAT/SNAT), filter the
subnet (without a transparent firewall), and add another allocation
without renumbering my existing equipment. It's normal SOP for
enterprise-y connections, and I enjoy having the same design at home. :-)
