See... this is where I see you feeling security rather than practicing security.  You see keeping the vandals out of your MythTV box as the end of it, but it isn't.  That's just the *start* of it.  You see your Myth box as non-critical but if it is exposed to a public-facing network then it *is* critical, not in the way you see it used but in the ways that it can be used against you or someone else.
