I don't see how IPv6 is used in the NAT444+shared address model.
You say "No" above to "this proposal extends the life of IPv4".
I think you mean "Yes" to that part.

If you have PC's serving as a CPE then your proposal won't help them
when such PCs are multihomed since the address space is not unique.
Multihoming is much more likely when it's a PC CPE than when it's an ISP CPE.

Yes it will.  If a PC gets an address, it will think it's a public address
and will try using 6to4 and run into problems where it thinks it should
work and it doesn't work right.  This is very different from today where
if it gets an address it thinks is public it works, and if it gets an address
it thinks is private, it doesn't try 6to4.

You didn't mention my comment in your list below.

(Q9) ISPs aren't special.  Corporate VPNs have the same problem with
     conflicting space, for example.  (I believe there are other examples
     but VPN's are the most well known.)  If ISPs get a space, then so
     should VPNs and various other things.
