Re:How bad is IPv4 address exhaustion?

Pedantic comment here, but NAT64 doesn’t involve any tunneling - it’s pure address translation handled by an edge box, whereas tunneling involves encapsulation.

True, I should have been more precise.
Although there is technically no packet-level encapsulation, from a mathematical perspective you may consider the IPv4 bits "encapsulated" within the IPv6 bits.
