I'm dealing with the devices I've got and the software stacks they have. In the end they fight for port assignments on IPv4 and expect to just have massive port ranges assigned to them.

Fixing the broken software that somehow requires a specific port and getting NAT-PMP deployed is a hell of a lot easier than redoing all of the software and all of the networks to implement IPv6.

Nintendo tells me to forward all high numbered ports to my console. Because obviously we're only going to have a single one in the house.
