NAT64 is CGN expecially when it is being implemented by the cellular
carriers.


Agreed.  And, the NAT44 that 99% of my customer use to today is also a CGN.

It's status quo, all v4 flows require state in my network, NAT44 or NAT64.

But, NAT64 has an exit strategy.  With every new AAAA that comes out,
that is one less destination requiring state in my network.
