Yes. I had a member of an account team for a networking vendor express extreme skepticism when discussing IP address plans and work I had done. When describing why I went with an IPv6 only solution for this setup, he responded, "Why not just get more IPv4 addresses? Just go back to IANA[sic] for more if you don't have enough already."
OK, maybe it's not *just* marketing, but marketing (using the term broadly) is still a very large part of it.

No doubt his response was born of ignorance. The correct response is...well, education, not necessarily marketing...but at the 30k foot level, they amount to the same thing (thus my parenthetical comment about using the term "marketing" broadly), as I think the upthread comments were doing. -- Jeff
