Yeah dropping Nat is the biggest net benefit I agree but I think the avg person won't really find that much value in it when Nat works ok
And the average person is going to be using it without knowing. And never complain or anything.
Yea, prolly already using it.
NAT works fine until you get stuck on CGNAT and can't host anything on IPv4 without using a VPN.
Meh, nothing a VPN and a 3 bucks a month VPS can't solve...
yells at cloud in IPv4
I thankfully have never had the misfortune of cgnat
Yet.
As IPv4 blocks get scarcer and ISP's get more customers, they'll all eventually have to move to IPv4 CGNAT.
And that's completely fine for most people.
If you're not one of those people, then IPv6 is your saviour.
