... but let me be a bit more blunt here (thank god i do not wear hats or chairs on my head usually),
and say we do have (rough) consensus for a long time already and finally should move on. 
(My personal point of view of course, but i think there is only one person objecting violently, and i don't 
see anything about veto-rights in the PDP)

I'm still happy to consider any new proposal how to do things better with PI 
from anyone. But keeping PIv6 different from PIv4 just isn't compatible with reality right now,
and there are no signs of any real downsides.
