Did my fair share of networking back in the day, but never heard of IP unnumbered. I was curious about the same idea back in the day and it is possible, but I haven't much seen anyone doing it for realsies. If you have any good longreads/vids on the topic, it'd be much appreciated.

I'll look at my resources and see what I can dig up. No promises, but the concepts are simple as long as you can separate yourself from the TCP/IP restrictions on two things needing to be in a subnet, and the idea that NAT is something that needs to happen.

Honestly, I've seen so many people get hung up on the fact that NAT isn't universal, or necessary.
