Dual stack IPv6 for IPv4 depletion

Exactly.

As a business entity and not a provider, we wouldn't have even contemplated deploying IPv6 without PI addresses. The myth of easy renumbering and/or having multiple prefixes/address per host for failover still shows up from time to time, but mostly gets ignored (at least in the corporate world). Remember SHIM? 

Any reasonable size organization that expects reliable internet connections is going to go BGP/PI.

This is IPv6.  Why shouldn't they have their own PI space?
