At no point does it inet_addr this nor does it imply this.. IMHO
it allows you only to control the internal makeup of your network structure.
All it does other than preserve global ipv4s is, to allow for
a obvious demarkation from what is global and what is not..
FWs act as your horizontal and vertical controls.
IMHO anyhow..
