You are mixing cause and effect. In IPv4 the vast majority of nodes
are limited to a single address at a time.

Well, I don't know about windows boxes, but real operating systems
have
supported virtual hosting in IPv4 for many years.  Having multiple
addresses on a node, even a node with a single network interface, is
nothing new.

My Windows-XP laptop currently has 14 IPv6 addresses, and 2 IPv4
addresses. The sky is not falling.
