We don't need more tunneling of IPv6 over IPv4, that was okay 10years
ago, maybe even 5 or 3 years ago.
Now it is time to actual do the right thing and say "let's do it
properly, let's do IPv6 native".

The time to actually do the right thing was also 10-15 years ago.  But native 
v6, for the most part, is still not here yet.  At least the ISPs are saying 
Real Soon Now, which is something.  But who knows what "Real Soon" means?   
Until native IPv6 is actually here, where "here" means "everywhere", there is 
still a need to do tunneling of v6 over v4.

...and stop discussing yesterdays technology.

We're always discussing yesterday's technology.   IPv6 was approved in 1995, if 
I recall.
