The introduction in the draft says:
IETF recommends using dual-stack or tunneling based solutions for
IPv6 transition and specifically recommends against deployments
utilizing double protocol translation. Use of BIH together with a
NAT64 is NOT RECOMMENDED [RFC6180].
This statement makes a strong obstacle when we develop stateless solution with
translation in softwires wg.
I think that it is still remained a room to make decision whether removing the
statement or remaining it.
The discussion which we'll have in the softwires interim meeting would be
helpful to decide it.

Abstract
Bump-In-the-Host (BIH) is a host-based IPv4 to IPv6 protocol
translation mechanism that allows a class of IPv4-only applications
that work through NATs to communicate with IPv6-only peers. The host
on which applications are running may be connected to IPv6-only or
dual-stack access networks. BIH hides IPv6 and makes the IPv4-only
applications think they are talking with IPv4 peers by local
synthesis of IPv4 addresses. This draft obsoletes RFC 2767 and RFC
3338.
