I believe the draft is addressing the scenario where the host and access
network are NOT dual stack due to address constraints.

For my use-case, without exposing my own forecasts, you can probably google
for mobile device growth to understand my growth magitude, regarding
available address space ...consider it non-existent within less than 12
months... to the point that adding new stores of ipv4 address is not a
feasible input to strategic planning. Imho, I simply do not believe there
is any *strategic* value in stateless solutions.

Yes, if we completely reinvented the service to use a scheme of stateless
address sharing there may be a path, but you cannot get there from here...
at least not in my case.

I believe we have discussed this before.  I hope my thoughts clarified your
question regarding the draft.
