Well, that seems the way to go for a OPNsense firewall regular usecase (firewall, VPN server, etc)
Active/Active would be nice, but doesn't play nice with the other services. As a pure router I wouldn't use opnsense, just linux with frr or bird for example.

You can always just install the pkg via CLI and don't use the UI, then you have the full power, with FRR or Bird

Yup, taken from the ticket:
1- Keep default of listening in all interfaces
2- Blocking undesired traffic to the base/fixed IP
3- Only allowing incomming connections to the VIP
4- Setting up outgoing NAT to the remote routers
