I don’t see how CGNAT does anything but allow easier access to attacks (using private ip space outside of the local network)

Decimal: 32.1.13.184.171.205.239.171.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.1
Hex looks easier to me. Plus it has the upside of splitting well on /64, /60, /56, /48, /32 which are the common cidr splits in IPv6.
Can you split the decimal on a /56 in your head? I always have to use a cidr calculator for IPv4 (/27, /28, /22) but never with IPv6.
Not sure what you mean you can't use the Internet without IPv4. Yes some sites won't work but some sites don't work with https but that doesn't mean you can't use https on the internet
Turn IPv6 with stateless RDNSS on (should be the default on all modern routers)
ping6 google.com
That's it as long as your ISP supports IPv6. No need to figure out a fd00::/8 that you maybe may not have.
The huge prefixes allow for a simple hierarchical network structure and gives us room to redo the address scheme if we end up wanting to (only a portion of addresses space is currently allocated right now) without having to go through this entire upgrade the internet again.
For the most part, yes it's supported by major OSes. (ND RDNSS) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_IPv6_support_in_...
