If you have ever looked at (large) enterprise IPv4 networks, you know
that you do not need to "suspect". It's broken beyond any imagination,
usually, with lots of internal NAT44, duplicate use of RFC1918 segments
("every kubernetes cluster has the same 10.x.0.0/16 subnet, because that's
how automated deploymet works - and besides, it's the only /16 available
out of 10/8!").
Going from there to IPv6 would bring immense benefits in the medium to
long term - but in the short term, it's "extra work!" and "nobody has
time!", and also "nobody cares, these are costs that people have become
used to" (and that's the worst bit of all).
