Strange choice of word. I'm not in the least enchanted by IPv4
or by NAT44 either. I just know as a matter of fact that the
IPv4nternet ran out of addresses a while back and we have no
alternative but to fix it using IPv6. All the rest is details,
important details of course, but details.
The point is that expanded address space is the only reason folks are
driven to v6. The other protocol changes are not received as improvements
and IMO have only served to further hinder adoption. These could have
been omitted and by doing so, i argue that, adoption would be (have been)
swifter.
