>If IPv6 were made today, it would be tunneled inside an HTTP connection. All the new apps would adopt it, the legacy apps would be abandoned or have shims made, and the whole thing would be inefficient and buggy, but adopted. Since poking my head outside of the tech world and into the wider world, it turns out this is how most of the world works.
What you're suggesting here wouldn't work, wrapping all the addressing information inside HTTP which relies on IP for delivery does not work. It would be the equivalent of sealing all the addressing information for a letter you'd like to send inside the envelope.
