Citation?

Hint - a *big* chunk of ISPs have NAT deployed, and that's messing with packet
headers.  Much as many of us would like to see NAT go away, I don't think we
want an environment where deploying NAT gets us a new roommate and best friend
named Bubba.  Oh, and if you're not modifying the TTL field, you're Doing It
Wrong.

Again, citiation?

Meanwhile, CALEA *requires* you to have a network that aids in at least
the interception of data.  What's a poor ISP to do?
