Yet, what other solutions are there? 13 years have passed and renumbering is still verboten. 13 years have passed and the only possible solutions
that we have in hand all are either a form of NAT or incorporate NAT.

The only alternative is to perform the brain surgery on the architecture to
allow dynamic renumbering, and no one wants to bite that off either.

Our choices are to NAT or renumber, and we seem unwilling to choose either.

I would like to add another solution, map-and-encap (without renumber), which
seems holding best promise to me.
