Yes, i think .gov requires AAAA records.  So it looks like DNS admins are
generating AAAA records that ultimately break connectivity.

Back to my question, should there be an RFC generated that advises network
admins to only put native natural addresses in DNS for anything that is
supposed to be production grade and routed across the Internet?

Meaning:

1.  Only make AAAA records from 2000::/3
2.  Do not make AAAA records with 6to4 addresses
3.  Do no make AAAA records with NAT64 WKP 64:ff9b::/96 ( saw this last
week )
