That is why I think a /48 only upon customer or equipment request, and a
smaller number by default is the best overall way to go.
"Upon Request" also includes devices that do dhcp prefix delegation as
well. It would be helpful if the makers of these devices would not
default to always request

I did not write this to open a debate on IPv6 exhaustion, but merely to
point out that policies could be changed in the future to reduce address
consumption within IPv6 if the community found it is needed.
Looking at the IANA assignments of the first 1/16 of the address space, it
is highly lik

If that's a goal, total IPv4 exhaustion could be legislated -today-. All
five RIRs would simply have to agree to
This all seems silly to me. #IMHO, IPv4 policy should be geared only mostly
assuaging operators to get to v6. Total exhaustion is a part of that.
Talking about v6 exhaustion is probably better suited for the IETF. Either
way, we’ll all be dead if/when it happens and it is not unreasonable to
avoid
I understand that there might have been some poor choices made with IPv6
in regard to address allocation that might lead to a future exhaust. The
main one is the 64 bit network and 64 bit host decision, considering that
it was based on 48 bit ethernet OUI's. I think it should have been 80 bits

I am not persuaded that this will be the case. When IPv4 was first
promulgated, I do believe that just about
The right answer is a return to an enviroment where there is no address
shortage. Of course that spells IPv6.
Getting back to the the simple record keeping role is already there in
IPv6 when there is no shortage of addresseses. The only issue is getting
to a tipping point where v6 is used mo

There are those that wanted to become landlords of IPv4. I think this kinda
shoots down those hopes.
