[members-discuss] Technical solution to resolve the IPv4 Exhaustion problem and to add more 4, 294, 967, 296 IPv4 addresses that are needed in the world

Respectfully your solution does not solve any problem. It just creates new ones.

There is no connectivity between IPv4 and IPv4+. So clients needing access to both world need to "dual stack" or even "triple stack" if they also need IPv6.

To enable connectivity between IPv4 and IPv4+ you would need routers to support 33 bit routes which is not going to happen.

To enable a client to connect to both the IPv4 and IPv4+ internet it seems to me that you would need at least another address family in the socket protocols which is also a massive overhead.  The formatting of the address as two 16 bit values instead of four 8 bit values does not fix the issue in the clients ipv4 stack.

You cannot route ipv4 and ipv4+ in the same global internet if they are two seprate networks and if the addresses mean different things depending on arbitrary address bits.

So I fail to see how in any way your solution would provide more adresses to the existing internet without creating a new isolated cloud.

IPv6 can coexist with IPv4 because it has been designed appropriately as a fully separate protocol with clean separation in the the ip stack via a separate address family.

Greetings
Christian
