I'll be that guy. Glad to know I'm not the only one who just wants ipv4 with extra octets. Edit: An aside, these addresses are different in both text or binary

  The other big problem I see to getting buy-in from non-networking people is the lack of good sources on how to prepare and roll out ipv6. It takes forever scrolling through pages of documentation that go through the history of ipv6 and the ipv6 numbering format. As though the world needs yet another primer on how long groups of 0's can be dropped to make ::1 be a valid address. Just link to Wikipedia's page explaining ipv6 addressing and move on.
