Can you explain this analogy?

The way you structured it, I feel like the analogy for "living on Mars" would have to be "merging company networks", but that happens all the time.

If Mars is supposed to be IPv6 then I can't figure out what the utilities are supposed to represent.

It was in response to the implication that it would be nice if all the new companies that big businesses acquire have everything (like ipv6) "ready to go" upon acquisition.

I was making a "joke" that it's as likely as us getting to another planet and it being already setup to be habitable by humans.

I think that would be a pretty good goal if we were going to new planets every day!
