look, i am the guy whose ranting in chicago got nat-pt out of the trash
heap and back alive (renamed nat64 and dns64 or whatever they are this
week).  $dayjob even needs it/them.

but i still do not understand the proposed experiment.  and it will need
to be explained in a way the most sociopathic ietf list participant will
understand and not be able to attack.

some portions of the message sound like user data capture and retention,
which will raise massive alarms.
