Oh, I'm not saying it doesn't exist, or doesn't work well for billions
of people.  Just that I've personally never had access to a system
where it works.

My home system gives:

hobbit:~$ ping 2001:41b8:202:deb:216:36ff:fe40:4002
ping: connect: Network is unreachable

And the VPS with the IPv6 route but no IPv6 address has already been
covered.

I have an alternative plan: don't touch it at all, so I don't break
anything, especially since I don't understand it.
