ALGs are not used or needed for most protocols anymore, they are actively harmful in most cases.

The current state of the art is to use hole punching and STUN.

Being used ? Being needed ? What is important is that they are here and enabled and ready to be exploited

ALGs (for SIP and FTP) are not enabled on OpenWRT by default. And I don't think any other ALGs had ever been widely used in practice.
