So 6-8 years to try and rehabilitate 240/4 was not even enough to try?
All the experts I consulted with told me that the effort to make this workable on the big-I Internet, not to mention older private networks; would be equivalent if not greater than the effort to deploy v6 ... and obviously with much less long-term benefit.

And for those cases I would agree with you and the experts. However it would have been possible to use 240/4 between CPE and a 6rd BR and CGN with CPE signaling that it can use 240/4 address it is assigned one. This could be done incrementally and would have been better than the /10 that was eventually allocated for that purpose.
