Short term thinking, the real economic damage of IPv4 is antitrust,
which far exceeds any economic damage of flag day. Vote for IPv4 is a
vote for monopolies and a vote against equitability.

The list is talking mostly NAT or no NAT, not single or dual stack.
These are separate discussions, I'm absolutely not saying don't do
NAT. I'm saying, If you want to do NAPT with your IPv6, go right
ahead.
