What you expect you can solve by "fast" depletion? Nothing, in my eyes. There're other mechanisms used to overcome lack of IPv4 in access networks (since RFC 1631 was introduced), and yes - there're "lazy" providers without IPv6 within their networks. And they can (and will) survive for many years without IPv6 implemented - as there isn't any major IPv6-only service. >From content-provider perspective, you cannot start new services without IPv4 and simply cut some customers behind IPv4 NATs from your business. We have to deal with reality - IPv6 adoption is slower than we expected. Even standardisation of IPv6 was quite slow in some details - we had to wait 18 years for RFC 8200... - Daniel
