I really love that the entire premise of this stems from that people doing
'software upgrades' to IPv4-2 - Electric Boogaloo would be any faster than
those same people just migrating to IPv6. Seriously hilarious.

If they won't move to something already supported on their software, why
would operators do software upgrades to buggy code.

All of it will be resolved with a software update, and BGP will be

You mean what everyone's already implemented with IPv6?  A complete
overhaul/replacement for IPv4, with all the changes already done and
fully supported in most major software packages, servers, routers, and
switches?

Enlighten me on why you are so obsessed with re-implementing IPv6 as IPv4+?

Nobody is "mocking" besides IPv6 fans that are against any solution
until IPv6 will be fully deployed which can take more 20 years from now.


Yes, because the all powerful IPv6 cartel is working with the Lumber
Cartel to stifle your 'inventions' for 'solving' the world's IP and spam
problems.
