Well, lately, it seems more and more the case that NAT can solve all problems, which I don't think will do.
Education indeed will help and there's no magic, but dragging NAT along each time is not helping either.

if you feel that NAT may have drawbacks which makes it a less appropriate choice than renumbering, then feel free to suggest some wording for the draft.

Ignoring the existence of NAT will not make it go away.  Educating people on its limitations may lessen its deployment, maybe.
