2. lack of checksum - in some instances packet corruption maybe impossible to detect in network
How prevalent is this problem? There might be not point fixing a problem with a 0.2% probability of occurring, especially as it might be cheaper to detect and fix the errors at the application layer.
3. solicited-node multicast in LAN - replaces broadcast 'problem' with vastly harder problem - likely most practical deployments will just use traditional flooding
Could you please explain how broadcast is better than solicited node multicast. In any case we aren't getting round that for now and it is deeply imbedded in NDP. I am interested in your negative experiences with solicited node multicasts.
4. large lans - no really ipv6's fault, but addressing policy's fault - due to vast scale, large lan adds hard to solve dos vectors
Just because you can have 2^64 possible hosts on a LAN still doesn't mean we through principles of good LAN design out the door. :-) So I'd say it's rather the fault of shoddy network design rather than address policy.
