If you're determined to destroy IPv6 by bringing the problems of NAT
forward with you, then, I'm fine with you remaining in your IPv4
island. I'm willing to bet that most organizations will embrace an
internet unencumbered by the brokenness that is NAT and move forward.
I do not think that lack of NAT has been a significant barrier to IPv6
adoption, nor do I think it will be.

I won't run an edge-network that *isn't* NATted; my internal machines 
have no business having publicly routable addresses.  No one has *ever*
provided me with a serviceable explanation as to why that's an invalid
view.
