I expanded to try and get you to see the point. I obviously failed. I shall not bother to try again as I'm worried the failure was at least partially because you would rather be pithy than see the point not matter how fully explained.

As for facts, there is lots of basis. HE has run a network for decades and has never let a v4 bifurcation happen so long. Ever. They've run v6 for a few years yet it happened. Asking the network in question's view on this perfectly reasonable - in fact the opposite would be unreasonable.

As for accusations, I challenge you to show where I accused them of anything.

Typing less does not mean you are actually thinking. You should try the latter before your next pithy post. Or at least read the post to which you are replying.
