it's actually the opposite:

- we *know* that NAT has limited applicability and interferes with
  applications that consumers/customers want to deploy

- at the same time most IETF attendees aren't doing things that NATs
  would break.

Wrong! Most IETF'ers I know tunnel back to their home offices. I personally use an IPsec/IKE implementation that doesn't care much for NAT.
