The HeroBox Desktop Mini might be interesting as well.
$30 more, 10% slower CPU, but 8GB RAM and 180GB SSD.

If you think of it as usable vs barely usable, there's a fair point there. I'd rather spend $400 on something I actually want to use vs $200 for a nifty form factor I end up not wanting to use because it's underpowered

You do have your point, but who's the targeted audience, usually the mistake we take. I myself would also wish it could be just a bit more powerful and use Linux instead of windows. So what I see is,
1. more powerful CPU
2. upgradable ram
3. gigabit Ethernet port is a must
4. may be linux instead of windows

Please add more, otherwise I sure love the "cute factor".

Can you run this entirely on USB-C? I have 4 USB-C monitors in the house and would like to have a device powered by the monitor(s) and video at the same time.

Gemini Lake makes for a great pfsense box.

No it's soldered but 4GB is plenty for pfsense IMHO.

If you want small dual NIC check out the Odroid H2+

edit: https://www.hardkernel.com/shop/odroid-h2plus/

Also, not a good option for pfSense (Realtek NICs) but they are 2.5Gbe
