Our current 'world view' is that companies get stable addresses. Consumers get
crap.

We invent complicated stuff like dynamically turning ULA on and off that nobody
else uses. We force renumbering in the name of privacy, etc.

We start by giving consumers a swamp and then try to build something on top of
it.

We make choices, like the DNS server has to be in the router, because only the
router knows about the current prefix, etc.
