You say that with such confidence! Doesn't make it true.

Zero interoperability is technically true. However the two protocols
can live very happily side by side, NOT interfering with each other.
Ricky saying "zero interoperability" is technically true - but not
really relevant.

As to "no viable upgrade paths" you seem to be a good example of NOT
that. Did you replace all your equipment in one great and costly spasm
to achieve IPv6 delivery to customers?

Getting IPv6 up and running is not a simple thing, but nor is it
leaking-blood-from-the ears territory.

"It's a forklift upgrade! There are no viable upgrade paths! Zero
interoperability!" - this is just Chicken Little stuff.
