RE: Looking for an IPv6 naysayer...

I have yet to see a broadband provider that configures a network so
that
individual nodes in the home network get global IPs.

On the residential properties that $EMPLOYER provides triple play to, the nodes behind each CPE can maintain up to 5 
leases.  And there are a few homes that actually use them - mostly homes that have webcams on them.  But most homes go 
the overloaded NAT route and just translate different ports to different RFC1918 addresses...

But at least in theory, what you're saying you haven't seen, is done up to some limit already at some ISPs.
