"Don't fix it if it ain't broke". If "ain't broke" just means "it still works" then I disagree. Predicting is difficultm especially if it is about the future, but us humans do have the abilty to make some predictions about the future and sometimes we can predict that although something works now, it will not continue to so so forever unless we do something. It is why we do preventive maintenance.
I say IPv4 /is/ broke. It has run out of addresses and we have to resort to ever more complex work arounds to keep it working.
IPv6 is the future. IPv4 is broke, let's get rid of it. ;-)
