This is my thinking about a big reason why IPV6 hasn't adopted quickly.  
There's a privacy issue.  I think that people like being able to hide 
behind private network firewalls.

I'm not sure about routing efficiency of IPV4 NAT versus non-NAT IPV6.  
It seems like they would be comparable.  I've heard that routing is a 
big factor in internet speed & energy usage, but I could be wrong.
