Site-level NATs have already contributed to address conservation very much, but not will do more.

If you are an IPv6-only site and you want to talk to the vast majority of the Internet that is IPv4-only, how are you going to do it if you don't have NAT?

I suspect the "dual stack" model chosen by the IETF and the fact that the IPv4 free pool will be exhausted before IPv6 is ubiquitous has guaranteed the pervasive deployment of NAT.
