I would argue the opposite; people won't turn it on otherwise, due to lack of 
knowledge or negligence. What I would also argue is that the API that opens a 
session should try all available address pairs in relatively short order - on 
the order of tens of milliseconds between new attempts - keeping in some 
scratchpad memory notes on what worked, and trying those first on a subsequent 
access to the same name. If IPv4 addresses are what work, so be it. 

Happy Eyeballs...
