Thank you!

It's a side effect of the draft submission deadline ;) Will be fixed in -01 ;)

If we compare the proposed design with a dual-stack approach, the
privacy considerations are the same:
- if the destination is a dual-stack (or IPv6-only) IPv6 will be used
in both cases;
- if the destination is IPv4-only, the traffic will go through NAT44
(dual-stack) or NAT64 (IPv6-mostly)

Would adding a text that privacy considerations are inherited from a
dual-stack design?

It's all existing in any other IPv6 deployment, right? Nothing
specific to IPv6-mostly. I didn't consider enumerating all IPv6
privacy implications, but maybe I should..
