So lets stop asking ISPs 'do you support IPv6' and instead ask 'Is your

FYI, NAT means 48 bit Internet, which is large enough for
all the practical purposes.

You can enjoy the 48 bit space even with the end to end transparency
with RSIP (rfc3130), A+P (rfc6346), E2ENAT (draft-ohta-e2e-nat) or
PE-ARP (NANOG47), though A+P is written as if it can't.
