Question
As I discovered this issue days after my 90 days support finished, I'm unable to report this bug through an official channel. How could I persist this soluction?

Moderators seem to have a mechanism to communicate with Netgear engineers and support staff.

ip6tables -t mangle -I POSTROUTING -o ppp0 -p tcp -m tcp --tcp-flags SYN,RST SYN -j TCPMSS --clamp-mss-to-pmtu

PS: The command specified in the first post is missing mangle table.

Please forgive my ignorance. Does this situation affect every ISP connection type?

    MTU 1492, default for PPPoE, MSS adjusted to 1432 (-60 bytes)
    
    MTU 1452, MSS adjusted to 1392 (-60 bytes)
    
    Without ip6tables rule, MSS always is 1440, despite MTU value
