Funny that you think NAT64 is relevant. Every successful deployment I’ve worked with in the US is just dual stack. Native v6 networks with nat64 came after the big content providers got ipv6 server support for the dual stackers.

NAT64 has worse scaling than CGNAT (requires more state and moving pieces) so it was never a solution to drive adoption.

Nearly all IPv6 traffic is cell phones. And they are all behind NATs.

You got confused. If it’s ipv6 traffic it’s not behind 6to4 nat. Any stats about ipv6 on the internet are by definition not included stuff that got hit with 6to4.
