"It would be our fault for failing to implement a viable alternative to IPv4 over a decade after its limitations started hobbling the Internet."

Wrong. The Chinese proposal doesn't supplant IPV4. Also, we have a replacement for that: IPV6. Despite some issues with backward compatibility due to more IPV4 design mistakes, it's gaining usage. China's proposal replaces TCP, not IPV4. Try again.
