Ok so basically, if more/most access networks were IPv6-enabled (because big or vital providers are IPv6 only) then all service networks would have to get it working?

Yes, if it's broken from one network but works from the rest, then the problem to fix is for that broken network.

If it's broken for everybody, then it's the one who has the broken end that needs to fix.

This is the same thing with IPv6, DNSSEC and all such new technologies. If there is only one ISP that does DNSSEC validation and it's broken because the zone is signed wrong, then that ISP gets blamed. In Sweden, where 85% of customers sit behind a DNSSEC validating resolver, nobody gets away with screwing up their zone signing because now it's their problem.

It's all about critical mass.
