That's simply not true. Every end user running NAT is running a stateful firewall with a default inbound deny.
Really? I just tested this with 8 different router models from 5 different manufacturers and in all cases the default behavior was the same. Put a public IP on a PC behind the router
At which point you're not running NAT, so it's a different configuration than the one under discussion.
