in the original case in question the fact that there's nat happeng
isn't material... so all of this discussion of NAT is a red herring,
right? the user of AWS services cares not that 'nat is happening',
because they can simply RESTful up a VM instance and ssh into it in
~30 seconds, no config required.

let's skip all NAT discussions on this topic from here on out, yes?
