Those would be the same ones that claim to see that 8k times the number of
bits that got us 30 years (while arguably loosely managed and including
hosts) will be insufficient to get us past 100 years (by only indicating the
customer demarc). 45 bits is a very large space. 

You can drop the bubble-hype of 'it didn't happen in 6 months so it isn't
real'. We knew going in that it would take a decade to make a massive change
to the infrastructure, and all hype aside we are not getting it done any
quicker by wasting time fighting nay-sayers. If you choose to slam into the
wall when the address pool runs out that is your choice. Some of us want to
enable others to avoid the problems that will create.
