Neither of these really either, although I should try to see how
SCTP behaves in this configuration.
As Brian said, a customer asked us a question, and we didn't know the

We'd just like to know the why, and the answer of "why not" doesn't
fly very well.
Although in the IPv6 case, there might be issues.
