But, isn't there a difference between "ports open by default" and "supplying rules that *can* be enabled when needed"?  Isn't that what is done for services such as "smtp"?

By default, port 25 is filtered.  But, in firewalld there is a check box to open/enable "smtp" services.  Isn't that the goal for KDE Connect?
