I've spent half a year getting nowhere on a discussion involving VPN-ing parts of the company just to have connectivity for specific services where part of the problem was lots and lots of overlapping 10./8 allocations - partially because everyone setting a "VPC" or some local dc network was doing individual 10./8, often "in name of simplicity". With subnetting needs, possibly dealing with VPNs to other networks that might use 10./8, ISPs that might use 10./8 instead of CGNAT space (100.64./10), even the total incompetence of some contractors was not reducing how IPv4 was a problem. And that's before you hit the part where Microsoft products have been IPv6 First since ~2008 and there are entire feature sets that are very interesting to bigger companies (like well integrated always-on vpn for laptops) that require working v6 | ||
