And ipv6 is no where on there radar. So fix ipv4.

I appreciate your input.

That wasn't the issue. The issue is that it takes some time to prepare
and do the implementation of another network protocol, regardless how it
is called or how it works in detail. No one cares about ARP, nor NDP. It
is there and works.

Corporate networks need address plan, firewall plans etc. and that needs
to be extended if any new protocol is going to be implemented.
