BTW, as I read it, SHIM6 requires not only modification to ALL nodes at the site, 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 in virtually 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.
