i really like it when somebody without a clue pretends to be an authority. the boxes that often are referred as NAT boxes are actually gateways that in addition to their routing capacity provide additional services like NAT and security (through firewalls). dropping the NAT function doesn't have any effect on the security aspect. instead, it makes the programming of such a box simpler, which by itself should improve the security
