Firewall and NAT are orthogonal. You need both.
Exposing your LAN configuration for the whole world to see is insanity. (Yes, we sometimes do this, but only because we still don't have sane VPN solutions here in the year 2022.)

Because you know, firewalls exists. > Exposing your LAN configuration for the whole world to see is insanity Bullshit. BGP doesn't 'expose' your internal routing configuration and there is absolutely no other way for someone to see how exactly the things in your network. OSPF could be used for it, but it requires: 1) being right next to your router 2) be configured to send on the external interface.
