If your #1 goal is to keep the stuff you manage secure, then keeping that stuff as simple as practical is a pretty obvious strategy.

If your #1 goal is to keep your 133t bragging rights, then there are no such things as unnecessary nor excessive complexities.

A brick is very simple and very secure. Some might say practically unhackable.

True. But if you need a secure network for the factory's SCADA equipment - a brick is just not a practical substitute.
