The basic premise that name use is tied to potential addresses
is false.
Also that fact that the address space is 2^128 in IPv6 in
no way means that we will get 2^128 addresses assigned on
the net.
A more realistic estimate of address usage would be 100 *
earth's population. Even that is a guess, but it will
only be a relatively small multiplier. The number however
is larger than 4 billion which ment that we needed a bigger
address scheme that we have with IPv4.
The DNS will handle whatever naming requirements humans
need for the forseeable future. We really don't name things
fast enough for it to be a problem.
