| has *any* form of identity That IP overloads "who" and "what" into one value is a fatal flaw. NAT forces the IP address to indicate topological _location_ and is therefore good. Anyone who attempts to use a locator as an identifier is wrong-headed and deserves no sympathy on the grounds of, "well our forefathers were wrongheaded too!" and other arguments of that style. Sean.
