The point is not needing a NAT translation table and running out of ports on your router. My provider also delivers an IPv6 configuration with all ports closed. I can enable incoming traffic for the devices that need it.

Running out of ports how? Someone is hosting 65536 public services in their home network? Why not just pay for an additional public ipv4 then?

I can't configure anything technical about my internet. Any change is paid, and often simply not possible.

Running out of ports is usually a misunderstanding, but a device doing stateful NAT will have a limit on how many states it can manage, and it's usually not fun when it goes over the limit.
