Ver brief, then: private individuals are less likely to have fixed IPs, so we need "hacks" like dynamic dns servers out there. If we need the aid of some hack to traverse NAT (say stun) we have to use the server of somebody else, we can not do it ourselves.
With my ISP, the IPv4 address changes so seldom that it's virtually static and the host name, based on the modem and router MAC addresses, changes only when I change hardware. I have an alias that points to that host name, on the DNS server I use.
