What happens if they compromise your device in secret and use it as part of a botnet? Lots of state backed attacks rely on traffic relays provided by compromised devices.
My NAS is behind a firewall and doesn't normally run the types of things you would compromise. (no web browser). They need to break many things at the same time to compromise it. I'm not saying it would be impossible to compromise my NAS, but is is very unlikely just because of how difficult it is. If I'm target of a state level attack I'm sunk anyway.
though offline backups are always a good idea. However they by definition need several days to restore (if they take less than that they are too easy for an attacker to target)
