Some people believe that "last match" is a great metric to audit rules for
intrusion detection and all sorts ruleset optimisation and refinement.

In OPNsense the question has popped up a few times to support it, but without
doing it in pf(4) directly it makes little sense as you'd have to crawl pflog
output and even then you can't crawl non-log rules this way...


Cheers,
