ipv18+ is just three ipv6 packets in a trenchcoat with the "mode" bit from ipv4+ on top

All network packets already have an age :P

Why jump from ipv6 directly to ipv8? Where's ipv7?

Where's IPv5?

Tested, but never implemented, protocol for audio and video transmission over internet.

Indeed, and IPv7 is already marked obsolete. So are IPv8 and 9 from what I can see, so we'd probably actually need to jump to IPv10, or maybe IPvA?
