"IPv6 will not be deployed soon"
Brusque manner aside, I would be curious to know how you define "deployed". Is it alive, in production networks today? Yes. Are there _many_ organizations moving towards that goal? Yes.
A problem is that the answers have been "Yes." for these 10 years.
encourage the yet-more-widespread use of a previous failing (loss of addresses as meaningful, unique identifiers)?
Problem of NAT is not there. Remembering a raw IPv4 address and a port number is human, while remembering a raw IPv6 address is divine, which may be the true reason why IPv6 is not really deployed at all. :-) Masataka Ohta
