While I self-host everything, I fully agree with this.
If it works and has no internet access, you'll just leave it there, running for a year, two years, when suddenly something changes. Either you need to upgrade the underlying OS to a new major version or some 3rd-party client changes, and you're confronted with a wall of stuff you must do.
Or even if it's something as simple as MongoDB, after a patch (not even a minor version bump), no longer being supported on the Raspberry Pi 4 even though MongoDB themselves posted a blog post a couple of months before that change showing how to easily install it on this device.
