Please re-read the message to which you initially responded.

I see no mention of such a thing anywhere in this thread.

Hardly. There are a few (not lots of) applications that are more difficult
(not impossible) to deploy on the Internet today because of a restrictive
address assignment policy (not because of rfc1918). Think about it. If
there were no private address space and the nodes that currently use rfc1918
addresses had *no* addresses at all would they be able to run your hypothetical
applications any better? Private address space and NAT are the effects--not
the causes--of a restrictive address allocation policy. Would you deprive
people of the address space they need to run the applications they need to
run just to make it easier to write some other super-apps that those users
don't care about?
