Implementing EzIP, as Forrest mentioned 3 days ago, has far more challenges than implementing IPv6. It will also cause far more incompatibilities when it comes to routing traffic between a network which has implemented it and one that hasn't. It also sounds like another version of NAT,

Let me start with I think we're largely on the same page here. The transition I see happening next is that the consumer traffic largely moves to IPv6 with no CG-NAT. That is, if you're at home or on your phone watching video or doing social media or using whatever app is all the rage it's going
