It is true for most of the world, not just Z1. But that was not my question.

Eh?

"Just tunnel it" DOES work. That is not an assumption that is researched knowledge. Tunnels are available for everyone on earth with an internet connection with a public IPv4 address. It DOES work. For free. For you too.
What I hope is the next FTSC chair thinks to ask about what a tunnel actually is before rejecting the idea out of hand.
CS> Do we even have IPV6 in Z4?
Irrelevant for the question at hand. But yes. See the list of IPv6 nodes in Fidonews.
Anyway... I conclude that the answer to my question ....
