Publicly routable is wonderful. My first job was a company that happened to have somehow acquired a class B, so all our computers just had normal real addresses, they always had the same address whether you were on a VPN or a home network or whatever and remoting into the company network just worked.

Same! It was incredibly easy to obtain address space in the 80's and 90's. I have a /24 ("class C") routed to my home!
