Hi Robin, Your assumption and definition of "won't work" with ILNP is incorrect.
An application that specifies an address (and not a FQDN) can perform initial packet exchanges while the stack does a reverse name lookup followed by a forward lookup. Note that this can be done in parallel with the initial exchange, so this introduces no latency. Further, the results can be locally cached. Finally, if the lookups do not succeed, the application is still effectively a legacy v6 application. Since data is being transferred by the transport as requested, this constitutes 'working'.
