When you say NAT "architecture", you are thinking, I guess of:
    - no IP address literals in protocol
    - no call-back patterns, like FTP, SIP,
    - UDP or TCP only

But, I don't think that's true.

Yes, it requires all IPv4-only end points (servers, etc.) to be compliant with the
NAT "architecture", but they already have to do that.
I think that IPv6-only applications are free to do anything they want.
