February looks like it is gunning for someone... what a worryingly consistent increase.

Yes it does take extra work. Problem is often that that work was done in the past when isp implemented their ipv4 metodology. And instead of using the ipv6 rollout as a chance to improve their design and operations. They just add ipv6 into their ipv4 design and methodology. They encumber their ipv6 rollout with their decades of technical debt and cruft they have normalized in their ipv4 world. And it will makes things harder for themselfs when trying to turn off ipv4 in the core.
Goverments (depending on juristiction) have laws requiering isp's to keep track of cgnat port combos. So not only is there no privacy from ipv4 cgnat. Now the isp must also spend a lot of money on the nat state tracking database.
If you need that kind of privacy, use a vpn and the tor onion network.
I am 50/50 between incompetence. Or so they can keep on charging extra for a static ip.
What anyone mean when they say get rid of dst is to stop the flipflopping.
But i guess you are technically right. Witch i have heard is the best kind of right. Even if very pedantic ;)
It happens, and is somewhat common. So in what way is the practice a benefit for the corp? I doubt it is just bragging rights?
I would not mind if americans used whatever. As long as anything exported from america always!! used metric. As it is now we need 2 complete sets of nuts and bolts, pipes and fittings, tools and gizmos, csbles and connectors. Just imagine the space we could save in our shops and storages if we could /2 the requires spare part storage. Not to mention the time and frustration avoided when doing basically anything on almost anything.
You can make summer time the regular time you know. Removing dst is about getting rid of changing the clocks twice a year.
Could not deal with the transition. No issues afterwards. So all machines off the evening before was sop for a lot of companies
A lot of software was updated prior to y2k to be able to cope with dates. But the transition was still difficult for some software.
That should simply not be allowed. Cgnat for ipv4 is fine if they also provide proper ipv6
