Well, it's one of two possible options. The other is to wall in your village idol with enough area so that a trader can port in and goods can be exchanged. Which you choose depends on a few things. Since you don't want to put a crossroad there to get past the gate, anyone needing to port into the village that doesn't have a hearth fire there will need to have someone there to unlock the gate (or have access to the key alt). That can be a bit tiresome if some of your village isn't allowed access to the gatekeeper.
