(not first hand experience but) Nabu casa is a way to support HA development, having cloud assistant is just a bonus, you also get easy external access and another bonus is that you don't need to setup the different addons to be able to use assist, while it is doable on something like raspberry 4, problem will be latency compare to nabu casa or you will need a more powerful device to be able to run them smooth. If you didn't bother to setup cloud assistant by yourself to avoid fees, chances are you will stick to nabu casa and it is a good thing as you are supporting home assistant development.
