This actually is a somewhat moot arguments. Devices travel today, and
while your home network and office network might be behind a firewall,
the hotspot you're using while waiting for your train might not be.
So with todays devices, every device needs to be able to protect itself
(i.e.: host firewall, services only accepting connection from "local
network", etc. - windows 7 doing a fairly good job with this today).
The old model "strong firewall, weak devices behind it" is just a thing
not matching reality anymore...
