A+P is the same case if I understand correctly. NAT44 is one of three fundamental functions in A+P architecture. Otherwise, it can’t connect to legacy end-hosts.
Usually yes, but not necessary. PAT could also do the work, if you connect behind CPE a host with public IP address, sort of like "bridged mode", and PAT in CPE changes ports to ones inside port-range/set.
This way no address translation is needed, just ports needs to be "redirected" to right ones.
