Yes, you can route all ports. You can use an RPC, accept incoming peer connections, run a btcpay server, etc., all on standard ports.

I didn't know about this. Interesting offer.
In comparison, you have more port flexibility with StaticWire, vs more straightforward simplicity and better pricing with Tunnelsats. Is that a fair assessment?

With StaticWire you have all UDP and TCP ports.
I don't think tunnelsats is more simplicity because you have to run on non-standard ports. Tunnelsats should be cheaper for sure because they aren't allocating you as much capability with their service and you have to deal with the complexity of non-standard ports.

There is no complexity of dealing with non-standard ports. If you're somewhat decently connected, gossip needs 2-7 minutes transferring changes across 95% of the network.
And once you have the custom-port, it doesn't change with your subscription. So port 1377 is as good as 9735, doesn't matter at all.
