Whether network policy permits application reachability is independent of whether applications are addressable.  I only think NAT needs to be used to redirect application flows between middleboxes, not between application endpoints in separate addressing realms.

Can you draw the picture? You could surely redirect by
encapsulation, and possibly by using a host route.
