Having carrier grade NAT will be very hardware intensive and eventually requires substantial capex, which begs a question if it is rather better for carriers and ISPs to look at migration plans to IPv6 than delaying the eventual.

Precisely.

I know I'll need CGNAT boxes.  But considering their expense, I also know

customers to IPv6 as quickly as humanly possible.
