You'll find a lot of different answers to this question. My only suggestion is "route all the things".
Okay, I lied. Kind of. Second suggestion is since you're talking about what seems to be a new network, you better roll out IPv6 from the get-go. Then get what IPv4 you can and run CGNAT. Troubleshooting layer2 issues across multiple hops is no beuno.
