Absence of NAT seems like a feature to me.  
Only if IETF would fix multi-hop multi-prefix solution for the business site. Home Networking WG did fail. SHIM6 failed 
too.
Till that time, NAT is the only solution for business.

Hi Tim,
Multi-prefix, SP address delegation through the site, absence of NAT.


Absence of NAT seems like a feature to me.  Fixing things to work with NAT has been, and continues to be incredibly 
expensive.
NAT provides little to no value in IPv6 because it is not scarcity driven.
Eliminating NAT is a net-benefit of IPv6.
