As a vendor, every customer problem is your problem.

Go visit some Fortune 500 customers and ask:
.  Are you aware you won't be able to get portable IPv6 addresses?
.  How would you like to renumber your entire network every year?
.  How would you like us to sell you IPv6 NATs so you'll never have to
renumber again?
