I think Iljitsch missed the point about privacy. Consider an IPv4

the internal IPv4 addresses in the IPv6 address makes these

I'm not seeing this.
vXuser ----- routers ------ vXserver
v6user ----- NAT64 ------ v4server
In the first case, the addresses are visible everywhere. In the second
case, the destination address (in one form or another) is visible
everywhere. How is this suddenly a privacy issue?
