I disagree with this characterization of the document.  I think it is
more like we have existing NAT mechanisms; we have strategies for
making them work.  Dual stack nodes is a better way forward than
creating a new NAT mechanism to move from IPV6 to IPV4 and trying to
make that (with a different set of problems than traditional NAT)
work.

I don't think this document is anti-NAT.  Can you help me understand
why I'm wrong or reconsider how much of your argument still applies?
