Hehe. ;-) That's both provocative and wrong. An IPv6 router can, at a
glance, decide if a packet needs to be handled locally or pushed out. No
need for mangling/rewriting as IPv4 NAT would require. It does not
matter if the packet arrives at the router via a link-local address,
because it contains the sender's global scope address and replies can
therefore be sent back with another single glance.
