First I've heard of ST or an actual ipv5 but sounds like they had
dropped a layer. Having options like tcp or udp is a good thing.

What would have been best, could have been done years ago and not cost
lots of money and even more in security breaches and what I meant by
ipv5 and would still be better to switch to even today with everyone
being happy to switch to it is simply ipv4 with more bits for address
space.

If I got an ISP who only offers me IPV6 I would drop the ISP before the
IPV4!
