Then again, if we remove all the improvements from IPv6 what's the point of adopting it?

How about "IPv4 address depletion?"

I'm perfectly happy with how my network works.  I do, however, want it to keep growing, and this requires more 
addresses.  

The requirement for organizations with thousands (or in some cases millions) of deployed customers to dramatically 
change how they can associate an IP address with customer ports (or provide remote configuration of said customers' 
devices) is not an attractive feature.
