> That's a fair point. In my mind, residential ISPs give out public IP addresses and CGNAT is just for cell phones.

If you are giving out public IPs then you aren't really NAT'ing.

Hm? The ISP gives one IP address to a router in a house, that router uses NAT to let all the computers inside that house use the Internet through the one single shared public IP address. That's NAT, isn't it?
