Broken DNS will result in problems browsing the web.  That doesn't make it accurate to claim that the web is broken,

I don't think that's a great analogy. NAT444 is CGN, the web is not
DNS. If I say I can chop down a tree with a red ax, can you disprove
that by saying that you can chop it down with any color ax?

Well, if your user does nothing but send email then perhaps even UUCP would be good enough.  But for the rest of us, 
until IPv6 penetration reaches all the content/services we care about, we need dual v4+v6 connectivity.

If we get dual v4+v6 connectivity quickly enough, we do not need LSN
(including NAT444).
