Expanding on Fred's concerns about ways in which NAT66 can be defeated, the NAT66 discussion only covered in detail a very specific deployment in which a NAT66 translator (or perhaps a few) are placed between an "edge" network and the "core". That deployment scenario is the one we usually think of, as it's the usual deployment model for NAT in IPv4. If there is a chance NAT66 might be deployed in other scenarios, some of which might be unanticipated in the current NAT66 docs. I think it's important to analyze other NAT66 deployments - multiple NAT66 in a path, routing that results in the use of multiple paths, NAT66-inverse at a destination that "unNATs" the effect of a NAT66 - so we fully understand the effects of NAT66.
