I think the author deserves credit for engaging civilly and productively with critics in this thread, but I personally believe that no matter how solid the engineering, the solution must still be subordinate to strategy, and any initiative that disincentivizes implementing that strategy is harmful. What is the strategy? IPv6. Why does this disincentivize implementing the strategy? Because it prolongs the life of the dead-end incumbent. This is like a design for a more efficient coal power plant. It may be ingenious but it’s still funnelling investment away from the actual goal.
