Do you think supporting dp is as easy as just slapping a 50 cent port on the side of the display??

It doesn't.

How does any of this apply to people not replacing hardware that is ipv4 only?
You're basically saying "only if people all moved to IPv6 we wouldn't have any problems", which is laughable at best.
But to answer your question, no, supporting dp is not as easy as just slapping a 50 cent port, but it also doesn't make things worst in unrelated areas. That is the point you seem to gloss over with IPv6. It is an ugly over engineered mess.
