Re: The bad decision that keeps on biting back
Websites were 1990s. Internet is about 10 years older in use, and designed earlier still.
The address size wasn't an issue for CPU word size or CPU address size.
A basic problem is that no internet resource using IP6 can turn off IP4 till everyone is using IP6 as there is zero interoperability.
At present "clients" have to use IP4 too, even if using IP6 because too much of the internet isn't accessible on IP6 only.
It's a mess.
