Amen, brother. Fact is, all critical limitations with IPv4 were hacked around by necessity, so the average user doesn’t care.

The main failure case is that it’s a painful or possibly impossible to setup your own public internet server from home, but ISPs are probably happy about that and games have figured out a work-around.

If IPv6 was a project at work, it would probably get killed as not a priority.
