Nice line. I don't agree with either your conclusion or your
sentiments, but it is definitely a nice line.
Has work been carried on IPv6 Interface ID Grids to give a quasi illimited
number of pre-defined/agreed connection points/ports?
(my interest is more "plug and play" and access engine oriented than IPv6
behind NAT or ... IPv8).
