Certainly, it would help to maintain some ambiguity in the internal details since certain components are publicly accessible.

It really doesn't matter what you use internally. Port forwarding keeps your internal addresses hidden from the internet, and even if exposed, it serves no purpose beyond your needs. That’s why it was created. For instance, if I need a VM to communicate with my real devices, I simply redirect a port. My network has three subnets: 192.168.0.0/24 for the modem router, 192.168.1.0/24 for the main router and subnet, and 10.0.1.0/24 for VMs and virtual services. If I have a web server on a VM at 10.0.1.69:443, I forward it to 192.168.1.69:6969. On the physical device at 192.168.1.69, I open 127.0.0.1:6969. Now the web server is reachable from outside its subnet.
