I don't think doing 464XLAT is interesting on the IETF network, because it looks just like an IPv4 NATTed network to the host (with some NAT traversal technology potentially broken).

The point of setting up an IPv6-only network is to discover what breaks, and hopefully to get people used to using IPv6, if it mostly doesn't break.   The point of enabling NAT64 is that it is more likely to reveal than conceal breakage, and additionally makes it possible to actually use the network, which is still a bit difficult on the completely v6-only network, more's the pity.
