The problem is that if everybody gets out of the way and doesn't follow,
your class E address is still *worthless*, because only "lead" and "follow"
result in people updating their gear to support it.

You're on the hook for 3 boxes.  Can you get the software vendors for all three
to *not* be in "get out of the way"? (Remember how many years a lot of vendors
spent playing "get out of the way" on IPv6 support, and how many are still
doing it *now*...)  Oh, and don't forget whatever webserver software and web
authoring/management software...

And the 9 boxes in between apparently belong to Comcast and HE, both of which
have drunk the IPv6 koolaid.  What's the business case for them to add Class E
support to their networks?

Yeah.  There's a whole lot of motivation to get out of the way here, because
most of the path thinks IPv6 is the right answer,  and not much business case
for any of the companies or vendors to either lead or follow on a class E
repurposing...
