I think that's unfair. To my mind (when I sat and did a long post-mortem
after the IETF adopted IPv6 almost two decades ago, trying to understand why
I hadn't been able to convince people to do something different), in some
sense the real guilty party in the IPv6 choice is the IETF at large, the
ordinary members - for accepting what was basically 'IPv4 with a few more
bits', instead of a fundamentally revised architecture that would provided
real benefits in the form of major new capabilities (e.g. separation of
location and identity), thereby giving actual operational incentives to drive
migration.
