Yes, you do. From the last 4 companies I worked for, 2 of them wouldn't
be in business anymore if they were limited to a /22. The 4th one is
still too new to suffer. The 3rd was the only one OK with that.
Most impacted are the "server hosting" providers.

Nice competitive disadvantage. I will have my own answers and field
experience on the subject in less than 1 year. Do you ?

Some of them don't. For the moment NAT seems to be more easier to deal
with then switching to IPv6. 192.168.1.100 is still easier to understand
than fe80::224:9bff:fe0d:beef (and the 9 other GUAs I have on my
computer right now). This is valid for the CxOs and for the guys that
write software, not the ones that run a network.
