That's very cool, but it still requires a working and reliable internet connection.
Also these ultra-long URLs are very clumsy and can't really be used directly, so you need to have some sort of cloud frontend that where the device phones home in order to announce its LAN IP, then the user can go through there in order to connect to their LAN devices.
For something like Plex it makes a lot of sense since you're probably going to have an internet connection when you use it anyway, but for my devices it's a deal breaker.
And at any rate, that's a whole lot of infrastructure just to be able to expose a simple web interface.
