There I only partly agree. Sure, many things are the same or similar in IPv4 and IPv6. But I also find that many newcomers to IPv6 have difficulty to get rid of "IPv4 think". To let go of the idea that NAT is "security" and that IPv6 is insecure because it does not use NAT is something that needs to sink in. Also it takes a while to realize that there is no need to be greedy when assigning addresses. There are 2^64 addresses in a subnet...
