Of course yours is feature-richer. But the topic of IPv6 NAT has had
come up a number of unrecollectable times, and the response has been the
same everytime - NAT is still an ugly undesired hack whose recurrence
wants to be avoided.
You can't avoid it.
People want to hide the details of the topology of their
internal networks, therefore we will have NAT with ipv6
no matter what we think or feel.
Everyone needs to stop being in denial, now.
So, does that imply there will be systems with only link-scope IP's
reaching-out to global-scope IPs, getting their link-scope's adjusted by
an IPv6 NAT?
