1. A modem that handles ADSL/VDSL/fibre incoming and 10GB ethernet outgoing with passthrough to:
2. A good wifi 6 mesh router + APs (eg Netgear or equivalent).
I don't want them to do anything but:
a) Support both DHCP and fixed assigned IPv4 configuration
b) IPv6 /56 subnet assignment
c) NAT outgoing IPv4, no incoming connections allowed
d) IPv6 ingress/egress
I don't want them scanning the traffic, protecting me from malware, upgrading themselves, doing anything fancy.
I want the bandwidth of my home ISP connection to be supported and I want the bandwidth of my 5G wifi and 10GB internal LAN to be fully supported.
A modem that handles ADSL, and VDSL, and Fibre, with 10GBASE-T? Why would such a thing exist?
All ADSL and VDSL connections known to man will have adequate bandwidth over 1000BASE-T, simple and cheap modems that support RFC 1483 bridging abound. If you've got >1Gb/s fibre, presumably your ISP provides equipment to support such, and why not simply have a router with SFP+?

Why would they do that? If they sell me 10GBit but I can only reasonably use 1, then they can sell the same thing to 10x the people with the same hardware.
Your best bet is still to run your own hardware and software like opnsense [1]. An old PC would do or if you need more a newer one. You can easily add cards for 10 or 25 GBit and upgrade later I needed with more memory etc.
I have 1.5gbps internet and the ISP modem has a multi-gig port on it (2.5G) so tplink deco series (X90) come with a 2.5G port on each unit, and the XE200's have 10G ports.
I used to run a full 10gb-t datacenter switch (dell) and put the fiber right into the sfp+ ports to do my own routing, but once the ISP started providing modems that could actually network at 2.5G it was overkill and I moved back to modem -> APs and modem->smaller 10G switch for PCs and Servers.
I’m a big fan of Ruckus for anything wireless, but they’re not cheap. But they’re extremely reliable, high-quality hardware that work especially well in multi-AP setups. You’ll probably want a separate modem+router device, though.
