Personally, I don’t disagree. We engineers do what we can to support IPv6: We 
build it into our tooling and switch it on in our gear. Our network is dual 
stack v4/v6 and has been for quite a while. But with other tools we don’t 
control, and particularly in terms of business process, we have a ways to go, 
and it’s not a priority.

I want IPv6 to succeed, really.  But the global end game picture looks more and 
more bleak to me.
