Curran told The Register now is the time to move your website or organization over to IPv6, a space that "contains enough address space to sustain the internet for generations."

Bet it won't last a single generation before it's filled up.

I don't think you fully grasp just how large a space ipv6 actually is.

PFFFFT! The IPv6 address space has 340 undecillion (3.4 x 10^34) addresses. I'm not saying it won't exhaust eventually, but that's 48.6 octillion addresses for every living human being (assuming a population of 7 billion).
