The ISP's make this leap for the customers.  Much like they have
decided 1 IP is enough for "most" customers and other decisions.

No ISP wants to run "ISP Grade" NAT.  It's a huge cost and hassle,
be it 6to4, NAT646, or any other form.  While they may do it to
transition, virtually none will attempt it long term.  Those that
do will have reams of complaints on various message boards about
how it breaks games, or voip, or p2p, or whatever.

So the only viable, deployable, code that works path is native IPv6.
ISP's will pick that path as they only one they can feesably support
in a scalable internet, and customers will be told "if you want
service, this is what you get".

But, not until the absolute, last second.
