 It is a sane, nicely designed, simple protocol with a lot of
flexibility that needs less worarounds that IPv4 does.
 

IVP6 comes from having too many web sites to fit in IVP4.
If you pay attention to the larger picture you might know that. That
the protocol has not been properly instituted everywhere it should
have been is not the fault of the designers but of people who learned
IVP4 and think nothing better can come along.
