Why would I want any of my devices on my network to have a publicly route-able address?

How is IPv6 itself not "gratuitously complicated". You think I am going to remember the IP of my firewall, my network switch, if it is that mess of characters that is an IPv6 address? I can easily recall 10.10.10.1 is my gateway, or that 192.168.1.1 is my gateway. You think instead setting up local DNS server and domain so I can do myrouter.lan is somehow "less complicated"?

Hard pass.
