The answer is: you don't have to.

Near End NAT traversal relies on support and configuration of clients,
something I have no control over. It simply fails to often, either due
to misconfiguration, simple lack of support, a buggy implementation or
something else not in my control.

Far End NAT just works (tm). Can't speak for rtpproxy, but rtpengine
scales just fine. Only positive I can think of is that you might keep
some audio outside of your network.
