exactly.  enterprises have een controllong their environments and
permissions across it based on ip assignment via dhcp for a few
decades.  and ipv4 nat is a much easier and cheaper way to get their
job done than trying to deal with ipv6.

in general, i do not find it a very viable business strategy to tell
my customers to do things they just do not want to do.  pushing water
uphill.  and we have been so good at denial for a decades.

we blamed the operators.  we blamed the cpe vendors.  we blamed the
router vendors.  and now we blame the users.  it's always someone
else's fault.
