Did you just add 'blindly passing traffic' to your statement? Did you read my comment about can help?

Move on, joker.

Sorry - which part of your comment added anything of value? "can help to minimize the attack surface"? 99% of the time a proxy just passes traffic through. Unless you're talking about a WAF which is a) a different thing and b) NOT what any home gamers are talking about when they recommend nginx, traefik, etc. to newbs.
