IMHO, native IPv6 in edge networks is desirable and natural,
where the edge networks may be as simple as a singleton node
and its attached devices. What we are talking about here is
VET deployment of IPv6 over IPv4 networks, but it is not
"held together" with IPv4. It is instead held together with
IPv6 routing and addressing.

This strikes me as a matter of opinion, and does not
mesh well with use cases and deployment scenarios we
are seeing. See RANGER(S):
