To really drive the point home, representing an IPv6 address in the same way as an IPv4 address (4 dot-separated numbers) would make it look like this:

    536939960.3187088857.1487198345.2501756647
    
    (this is 2001:db8:bdf7:1dd9:58a4:d889:951d:c6e7)
You can't even squeeze that into a `sockaddr_in`.
