Why can't they move to IPv6?
Moving to IPv6 works until it doesn't.
Well thats kinda what happened in IPv6 we were all supposed to move to long ago.
Let's just go full native IPv6 already. Clinging to the past like this doesn't make sense in the long run.
I can't tell whether I'm missing something: how would IPv6 obsolete their work?
IPv6 is still an afterthought for nearly every level of networked software development, and that will probably never change as long as IPv4 is a viable alternative. V6 is just... Annoying, compared to V4. Without a concerted industry wide effort to abandon V4, V6 won't take its place.
It'll be IPv4 -> IPv6 all over again.
Getting with the times these days means adopting ipv6, not putting more bandaids to ipv4
Yes, but like IPV4 to IPV6 transition it's work.
Another day, another reason ipv6 should have been ipv4 with more bits.
