Actually, the whole point is that NAT64 does not touch IPv6, so it is not 
"breaking IPv6" - it ensures that IPv4 legacy is still reachable, even if 
you're inside an IPv6-only network.  

Which sounds quite positive to me, given the alternative is "run dual-stack 
everywhere, forever, because someone out there might still be IPv4-only"...

Carriers can't "just turn off IPv4" if users still connect to IPv4-only 
sites...  so what is worse, NAT44/CGN and dual-stack all the way to the client, 
or nice and shiny IPv6-only at the edges, and NAT64 for talking to the old 
Internet?
