There's always an edge case, gotta know the various sec controls to slice the target risk outcome, vs target outcome == specific implementation. Security hires who are challenging employees are the latter types. Edge case and your answer, in spirit - public-facing server, can't have a HW firewall in-line, can't do ACLs for some reason, can't have EDR on it.... at least put on a Linux host-level FW and hope for the best.
