Not sure I agree. An excerpt from the document (section 5):
" When Device identity is used, the "LCP policy" is only applicable if
the LR and Target are the same entity. If they are the same, the
security and privacy considerations of the base HELD protocol
[I-D.ietf-geopriv-http-location-delivery
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-geopriv-held-identity-extensions-00#r
ef-I-D.ietf-geopriv-http-location-delivery> ] MAY be applied by a LIS.
The usage of the additional identifiers defined in this document by
the LR MAY cause the LIS to perform additional security verifications
to take place."
I have yet to find where you describe the 'additional security verifications
to take place' and the mechanisms required to accomplish such.
How does the LIS verify that the identifier belongs to the target and not
someone else?

Hmm... The 'excuse' for NATs was IPv4 address exhaustion. But IPv6 was
first published 1995 and updated in 1998. I would not consider this the
IETF not reacting! And my comment about the gray-beards was the IETF
forewarning the problems NATs would cause, which in hindsight, have proven
to be true and have cost far more $$ than simply upgrading to IPv6 way back
when.

And protection of the Internet Architecture model.
