Easier if you’re a native English speaker. Harder if you’re not.

My only gripe with IPv6 addresses is they look too similar to MAC addresses. But as a representation, I think they’re absolutely fine.

fair point about native english speakers, but there's also no reason this scheme can't be localised
That would cause worse confusion when working with teams from different localisations. Not to mention the complexity of now adding localisations to the address parser.
