Interesting video.
I conclude that a good ethernet surge protection costs over 100 € - in the price of RB.
Then what's the point of complicating, we buy a spare RB instead of a Surge protection.
The backup can also be useful when other problems arise.

... powered by? Don't forget that power adapters are "guilty" of quite many surge damages, overvoltage can pass those as well.
