I'll repeat that any claim to the contrary is disturbingly disconnected 
from the documented standards.

I don't object to changing IPv6 requirements to support a *requirement*, 
but not changing them to support false marketing (here's an IPv6 router, 
but oh, we can't actually support the existing IPv6 requirements, and we 
can port-filter, but not if the L4 header is too deep to be implemented 
cheaply).

The reality is that there is no requirement that routers port-filter.
