Shim6 is not 8+8; the address changes take place in the end system.

There is not as yet any technical reason why this should be so. And if shim6 is to work with ULP's like UDP, then there isn't any good technical reason why the connection between ULP and the shim must be on the same host.

If a technical reason comes along to restrict shim6 to having to be on same host, fine. If it doesn't, no reason to be arbitrary.
