I would agree with that conclusion for mapped addresses, but I have heard NO ONE explicitly saying anything about the usefulness of compatible addresses.
With the email received after yours, I think it is clear there is not a consensus to remove either the IPv4 compatible or mapped addresses from the IPv6 address architecture. I think your email helped to clarify this.
Thanks, Bob
