I think there are unanswered things about reality that naturalism can't make sense of. And maybe they can be explained by things we don't know "outside of this universe" or w/e. I don't think it would be god(s) or anything, but rather deeper metaphysical truths that sustain our universe. Things like idealism etc.
I agree that if anything was beyond the universe, it would continue to be natural. But since apparently we can't experience them, it's useful to call them "supernatural" in the sense of it being "beyond 'our' nature".
A fair point (my bolded) but my preference would be to choose another word given the many unfortunate bordering on incoherent uses that one has acquired.
