You don’t understand it then. In V8 every IPv4 address is a valid address, that means you can have IPv4 and IPv8 on same IPv8-lan and first class support for translation into the protocol instead of an array of hacks is a miles better solution than the pile of rubbish that v6 is. In fact, IPv6 isn’t even a new version of IPv4, it is a different protocol entirely and a rubbish one.

Every v4 address is a valid address in v6 too, so it seems it may be you that's lacking an understanding of v6.
