Well it doesn't help that Microtik routers ship with a clean allow all firewall rule set! When I briefly used my (since-returned) CRS-tier switch as a router, it kept getting popped within five minutes of me resetting it!

That's not really true; the default firewall set is configured by quickset. What roles are available in quickset depends on the device; routers/APs for SOHO segment do have sensible firewall rules there. You used a switch with L3 capabilities. This isn't intended for firewall or NAT application (the performance would be abysmal), so it does not have similar rules by default.
