BTW, as I read it, SHIM6 requires not only modification to ALL nodes at thesite, but, modification to ALL nodes to which the node needs reliable connectivity.
For one host with multiple, globally-unqiue addresses to talk optimally to another similarly-equipped host, such that failures in reachability of individual addresses should not cause sessions to fail, both hosts would need to be shim6-capable.
In other words, SHIM6 is not fully useful until it is fully ubiquitous invirtually all IPv6 stacks.
Which is not to say that there is no value in a non-ubiquitous deployment -- rather, the value will grow as deployment proceeds.
