A separate wifi network may still be connected to WAN. The only benefit to separating from your usual wifi network is to minimize the attack surface for a bad actor to access other devices on your network. But that's not the topic being discussed here.
If you're suggesting that the separate wifi network not be exposed to WAN, but to be LAN only, then yes that's one possible solution to avoiding exposing these devices to WAN, which is exactly what we suggested. But thanks for your input, dolt.
