what benefits are there?
In practice, a major benefit to using NAT is that it doesn't require the co-operation of either the ISP or the registry. For many small/medium enterprises, the turnaround time and extra form filling to obtain an assignment aren't worth it, especially when combined with the other benefits to NAT mentioned here.
