Question I have is, why choose OpenSuse, or any general purpose distro, instead of pfSense, or some other "purpose built" FOSS software?


Agreed.  I used to use Suse for my firewall, until my ISP started providing native IPv6 and I found my firewall couldn't handle DHCPv6-PD.  I switched to pfSense, which works well with it.
