The problem is that CGN and NAT444 works with todays devices, whereas 
IPv6 does not (thinking mobile devices and residential CPEs).

IPv6 is not today a viable alternative to CGN, one has to do both for a 
while before hopefully devices can do IPv6-only access and one can then 
have a centrally placed NAT64 (or similar) gateway.
