Just to clarify though, I'm not for NAT in any form. I think NPT is a lot better, however I still think that because it hides the external identity of hosts from themselves that it creates constraints that are better to avoid. Through experience, I've come to the view point that global uniqueness of identity (through globally unique addresses) is a property that is nearly as important as global reachability for troubleshooting and security.
