What's the point of switching to IPv6 if it repeats all the IPv4
mistakes only with bigger addresses?

Bigger addresses. People want to engineer their networks they way they
want to. Let them. If their way is stupid, then they'll have the
stupidly engineered network they wanted. Telling them they have to do
it your way because their way is stupid is just going to keep them
from
changing and increases a chance of a NATernet.

So, we should just have no rules or standards at all, and just let people do whatever they want. How well would that 
work?
