You seem to fail to realise that you are not Lorenzos customer, his 
customer is the OEMs that build mobile phones, and their customers who buy 
Android phones.

So while you are doing what you think is best for your network, Lorenzo is 
doing what he thinks is best for his platform and the hundreds of millions 
of Android users that are out there.

So I happen to agree with Lorenzo that a single IA_NA per device world is 
a crippled world. Lorenzo said he was willing to work on a document that 
creates a recommendation for certain minimum amount of IPv6 addresses per 
device and/or PD, so let's get that happening then?
