LSN is required when access providers come across the following two

2 has little bearing on need of LSN to access v4.  Insufficient amount
of IPv4 addresses => LSN required.

No, if you have the option of deploying the customers on IPv6, you don't
need LSN.

The problem is that until the vast majority of content is dual-stack, you can't
deploy customers on IPv6 without IPv4.
