We already knew that the poorer countries are impacted worse by the IPv4 shortages. CG-NAT didn't solve anything but only delayed long enough to do even more damage. Now these already poor countries also have to do CG-NAT, which is very expensive. They cannot afford this.

I guess that a poor country could go with only IPv6? Local services would be IPv6-only as well and most popular services already have IPv6. And everyone else would have to make this switch eventually, so there'd be benefits...
