This is completely out of touch with reality. 
Routers don't get updates. There's no money in updating software once the 
device is sold. 
Replacing them would cost hundreds of billions of dollars.

Why would they accept your proposal over IPv6?

I'm getting tired of having the same conversation with you. I've tried very
