shorewall doesn't support nftables, which is largely the point of 
firewalld:  The Linux firewall system is currently undergoing yet 
another deprecation and migration from iptables to nftables. firewalld 
should remain stable during the migration process.  As far as I know, 
there are no plans to support nftables under shorewall, so new users 
will most likely throw away any investment they make in learning and 
implementing shorewall.
