Hmm... we may be getting off topic.

464XLAT definitely shares IPv4 addresses on the PLAT -- That is RFC
6146 -- statefule NAT64.

Perhaps what you mean to say is that 464XLAT uses stateful sharing of
IPv4 addresses as defined in RFC6146.  The public IPv4 address
resources are decoupled from the IPv4 service deployment at the edge.
This is more flexible, IPv4 efficient, and allows for geographic
redundancy of the translation exit points.

So, to summarize.  Both 4RD and 464XLAT support address sharing. One
is stateless and the other is stateful.

4RD over 6RD?

That is a lot of RD :)

I believe the implementation report here shows that 464XLAT provides a
good users experience on 3G networks
