I'm interested in your claim that the "handover is too slow to be useful" is
generic; i.e. would apply to any mechanism.

Are you saying that any attempt to switch from use of one address to use of
another, while a connection is open, is bound to be too slow to be useful?

That would be of interest, if true, since people want that as a goal. Are
