True, but when I get a new firewall/router, especially in a hurry because
the old one died unexpectedly, things get hectic and with me, that usually
means problems.  The last time I replaced the router, I ended up with one
that didn't support DHCP/DNS (no openWRT) and had to scramble to get things
reset because it defaulted to the 192.168.1.X subnet.  If I'm already using
the standard 192.169.1.X subnet, switching routers is less involved. I'd
rather be watching TV. ;-)
