Under strategy B you say:

> 1. Probably not compatible with UDP or TCP 

I think you mean "not compatible with UDP or TCP sessions
surviving all topology changes". There's no incompatibility
as such unless the address pair changes.

(I hate to sing the same song again, but this is exactly
the issue that shim6 fixes, for the subset of hosts that chooses
to implement it.)

Oh, and you could add as criticism 4:

4. Unrealistic for IPv4 due to address depletion.
