I'm not really sure what point you're trying to make, though...?

In this particular context, nothing more complicated than the fact that the commonly used APIs (derived from the IPv4 APIs) promote and/ or support particular coding patterns that forces applications to deal with renumbering events, thereby making renumbering disruptive. In this way, IPv6 is approximately the same as IPv4 in terms of renumbering, something I find unfortunate.
