Is anyone arguing against this? The problem is what happens when there = isn't sufficient IPv4 to do dual stack.
On the client side you will still be dual stack and also be using PNAT (single, double or distributed) to more efficiently use the available IPv4 addresses. There will be service providers that provide client address pools for those that can't get IPv4 addresses themselves using technologies like ds-lite to transport the traffic. On the server side you will be able to purchase the use of a IPv4 address and the packets will be tunneled back to you socks like. Eventually most of the traffic will switch to being IPv6 and providers of theses services will disappear as they are no longer profitable to run. Mark
