There's a fundamental lack of understanding from people on why you can't
just 'bolt on' more addresses to IPv4.  Data structures in memory,
software APIs and syscalls, hex notations, subnetting, route
determination and propigation with internet routing protocols like BGP,
hardware CAM, among many other things.
-----
All of it will be resolved with a software update, and BGP will be updated to support IPv4+ with backward compatibility.

I'm not here to do your homework. Its not my fault you lack the
understanding as to why people are openly mocking you here on your
'inventions'.

Nobody is "mocking" besides IPv6 fans that are against any solution until IPv6 will be fully deployed which can take more 20 years from now.

Those of us who have actually been involved here and elsewhere for a
very long time have seen people bring it up every year.

Their ultimate solution to the IPv4 issue.

Like I said, we all just chuckle at it whenever anyone makes a big deal
about it.
