For example, encryption cost is high, but there is a motivation that
many people would accept (and create the pressure on the financial

Wrong, encryption is a rather small task comparing to other processes,
like JavaScript in the browser on bloated websites.

For the case of half IPv6 address bits wastage, it was initially "OSI
layer violation to put MAC inside IP address just because some IPX
politicians have big enough weight" that was later replaces by
"randomize IP address to make more difficult to guess it or scan".
Number of people who would support this madness would be very small -
OTTs have hundreds of ways to de-anonymize users. Hence, it is just a
wastage of 2% of Internet for nothing.

And no one cares about that waste. The time of saving every bit is over
for a long time. Otherwise bloated operating systems, huge computer
games or websites with megabytes of data for nothing would not exist.
