You can run a router with just one Ethernet port on it. That's what subnets are for.

Also, if they only had two gigabit ports with WiFi, they'd be directly competing with the nano-pi for market share. https://www.friendlyelec.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=296

Still, I'm actually with you. That is a weird choice to make.
