I’m unclear on the purpose of a router. Could I just have a cable modem directly connected to a (smart managed) switch that feeds all the clients?

    A modem modulates/demodulates. A router routes

    Most modems these days are combined with a router. So yeah you can use the routing capabilities and plug into a smart/dumb switch and it will work
