I have 5 locations running effectively independent VPNs, each hub connected to each other for redundancy if a VPN falls over.

i.e. Each hub has 1 VPN in, or is connecting 4 ways out.

If the port forwarding or something fails inbound, then I can connect via another VPN and try and debug/diagnose what is wrong.

If all VPNs are reporting down, then I know the pi/internet is completely down. It will either restart connectivity, but I have someone there who can plug/unplug/restore the system if necessary. The same kind of problem would occur if ssh falls over or wireguard.
