How much would it add to the pain of the v4-v6 transition, to just bite
the bullet and do tcp-sctp at the same time?  I'd sure rather be a
network troubleshooter going through that than living with NAT forever.

it's the delta between the finite and the infinite.  sctp requires a flag
day whereas nat can be deployed incrementally.  sctp isn't going to happen,
at least not on the scale that nat has happened or that ipv6 will happen.
