other posters already mentioned that Rules fix the points mentioned. additionally you can use cloud functions for the cases where rules dont cut it. by no means you have to pick an all-or-nothing situation, which breaks your argument about making firestore pointless once you use cloud functions.
finally, there are still other advantages like reactive programming, which MongoDB doesnt give so its not a good replacement
