Paying for the upgrade by having higher prices towards end-customer is what is going to happen all across the world if we get hundreds of thousands of Ipv6 PI. So everybody pays, just not the ones causing the problem. Classic externalising of costs. See my earlier links.
You did not establish any proof that there will be hundreds of thousands of additional PI prefixes in global routing tables. I find this claim questionable, at best.
I guess you don't belive in "polluter pays".
It seems to me that € 50 / year * PI prefix is a cost that's being paid today. Of course, you are free to argue that this is not enough. Maybe more people would agree with you if you wouldn't use ridiculously inflated numbers, both for the projected PI prefixes and your desired price of € 2000 / year * PI prefix. Or tried to write your emails in a slightly less heated manner. Best regards, Richard
