Yes, that could change with IPv6. But it still doesn't have anything to do with NAT. Just because stateful firewalling happens on the same device as NAT, doesn't somehow make it a property of NAT. There also usually is a web interface on the same device. Now, with IPv6 that could change as well. Does that mean that web interfaces are a property of NAT? Or that it would be sensible to say "NAT is commonly deployed with a web interface"?
