you keep insisting on IETF endorsing v4-like NATs in IPv6 - but the effect of what you're trying to do is make IPv6 as broken as IPv4 is. no thanks.
NATs are not broken in IPv4. This is a statement of fact given the evidence (user-base and rate of growth). Statements that v4-style NATs will make v6 broken are opinion, unsupportable opinion given v6's rate of adoption. As long as consumers and security experts continue demanding v4-style (stateful) NAT in IPv6 efforts to kill it and/or proclaim it dead are greatly exaggerated, at best. In the real world we recognize that IPv6 is and will continue to go nowhere until working NAT64 and NAT66 implementations are available. That's not opinion but simple, objective, agenda-free observation.
