zero interoperability, and no viable migration paths, it's a Forklift Upgrade(tm).
You say that with such confidence! Doesn't make it true. Plenty of people around the world have upgraded, and I bet you couldn't find ONE that did it as a "forklift upgrade" - or at least not for that purpose alone. Of course, the longer you leave it the more likely you will be forced to do it that way. All you have to do is some basic design work, get your engineers on board, make IPv6 part of your normal equipment replacement cycle, and within three to five years you will be IPv6 capable. Oh wait - you didn't start doing that fifteen years ago? Ten years ago? Five years ago? Every year since then? When everyone was telling you you should? Oh dear... FX off: "Charlie! Fire up the forklifts! We're gonna need all you got!"
