I had this too. I assumed it would be fine - and it mostly was. However, we tracked a weird bug with some of the companies IoT products not being able to open a connection to the .0. Never figured out if this was a dodgy IP stack on the devices, or if it was the particular mobile carrier in that area of the world. My money would be on the latter though.

Yep, you can run into weird issues at times with devices/firewalls that are misconfigured. Saw more than 1 admin that would drop anything from a .0 as "it is a bad address and nothing from that address should cross a router".
