This would be very ill-spent effort.
If we do the same stupid things a few more decades, like "write new software
with IPv4 only, sell millions of phones and other gadgets with IPv4 only",
migration to something reasonable will be much *harder*.
If we had done the IPv6 thing 5 years ago already, hardly any mobile
device would have been affected - today, there's millions of iThings and
Androids that don't support IPv6 on 3G - stupid and avoidable pain.
