Can we all agree to not link that comic when nobody is suggesting a new standard, or when the list of existing standards is zero to two long? It's not obligatory to link it just because the word "standard" showed up.
I think that covers everything in that list. For example, trying to go from IPv4 to IPv6 is a totally different kind of problem from the one in the comic.
The point is that, ironically, new standards may have been a better option.
Bolting on extensions to existing protocols not designed to be secure, while improving the situation, has been so far unable to address all of the security concerns leaving major gaps. It's just a fact.
