This is the semantics police speaking: PI = Does *NOT* scale.
Starting with this assumption leads us to two bad choices. Maybe it is time to question this assumption?
Same here.

I said what I really meant... I think that we should find a way to return to stable, globally-routable, provider-independent addresses that are allocated to homes & enterprises. Addresses that do not change when you change ISPs, and that cannot be changed by your ISP. Real PI addresses. Just like the original addresses allocated in IPv4.
