You are confusing SI with Packet Filters. The technologies are different and it is, also, important to understand this distinction as well.
I don't think I am "confusing" the two. I am saying that I have seen people use them and think they are secure when they aren't. IPv6 is going to make it a little harder for people to make this mistake (or easier to make it, I haven't decided yet which way it will go) and you will see more people purchasing equipment that does real state inspection which is my reason for predicting an increase in firewall sales. They won't have that dynamic NAT that lulls some into a false sense of security. Also, I believe the "fire suit" approach will become more important to people rather than the "fire wall" approach with IPv6. G
