You are technically right, which is the best kind of right, but then again, what would pose a greater risk: ipv4 with NAT where you turned the firewall of, as you described, or ipv6 with no nat where the firewall gets turned off? In your example with a packet coming in on the wan side with a destination address in my lan segment, how exactly did that packet get there? Spoofing the source address is easy, but for a spoofed destination you'd have to be my ISP, or have hacked my ISP.
