Maybe easier to setup because routers that support vpns come with nice-ish web uis.
That said, if you have a server (pc, pi, etc), setting up wireguard with wg-easy is mostly painless (comes with a nice web ui), so there is no reason to replace your router in this case!
Instead of replacing a router, I'd prefer buying a pi anyways.
Unless you want to route all outbound traffic through a vpn with zero config on devices, I can't see why you'd replace a router.
Final note: most people prefer hosting a vpn on a server, even if their router supports it as far as I'm aware at least (edit: this might be erong judging from the rest of the comments saying they use their router).
