Hi, Chris:

0)    Thanks for your observation.

1)    Although I specifically requested Karim to go offline on our idea to his inquiry, lots of comments appeared on NANOG publicly. To be polite, I tried to respond by clarifying and describing each. Unfortunately, many comments are actually persistent IPv6 promotions, even my attempt of bringing up the community consensus of "Dual-Stack has distinguished IPv6 and IPv4 into separate tracks" was in vain.

2)    Philosophically, IPv6 and IPv4 are kind of like two religions, each with its own believers. As long as the devotees of each focus on their respective passion, the world will be peaceful. As soon as one camp imposes its preference onto the other, friction starts. Unchecked, it can go even worse. ... But, I digressed.

Regards,

I am curious if anyone has ever given you positive feedback on this idea? So far
all I’ve seen is the entire community thinking it’s a bad idea. Why do you
insist this is a good solution?
Because people keep responding.
