Once one adds the (now mostly unobtanium) RPi CM4 cost plus a suitable box and accessories, it goes well beyond the $150 figure, which is still not bad per se, but I would rather spend twice for a more robust and powerful system such as either a APU2 by pcengines.ch or a IPU from NRG Systems. They're x86 based, so OpnSense is also fully supported along OpenWRT.
