Or boiling the frog...
but the slow long approach would seem to encourage sick half- solutions,such as (even more) massive nat deployment etc.
To be honest, I'm having some difficulty imagining realistic scenarios of future Internet growth that do not require (even more) massive deployment of NAT. If for no other reason than IPv6-only sites (since folks won't be able to get IPv4 addresses) communicating with IPv4 sites (i.e., the vast majority of the Internet).
I'm not sure I see how a major sharp pain would reduce the need for (even more) massive deployment of NAT. At least with slow long pain, there is more of a chance that folks will finish deploying the parallel IPv6 Internet so massive NATing isn't as necessary...
