Let me try to be specific on your point. I could be completely misunderstand you. Here are some basic statements:

(1) IP is a robust network layer that has proved to work for many applications.
(2) ICN/NDN is a new data-plane paradigm that is designed for non-conversational flows.
(3) It is not clear yet, if an ICN forwarding plane is faster than a IP forwarding plane. And it may not matter.
(4) ICN can do source authentication for each packet. That is a nice feature at some cost.
(5) IP cannot do packet source authentication.

So you might follow to say that IP can’t do source authenticaiton and therefore IP doesn’t have enough coverage for new features.

Is that what you are claiming?
