I assume someone’s tried using MX record precedence to do this?  AAAA record 
references with lower values than A record references, and see what happens?  
Anyone have any results to share there?

If all currently-listed NS are dual-stack, I don’t know how much more would be 
gained by pruning them back to IPv6 only, from an actual-change-in-the-world 
perspective.  Obviously it’s got to happen in the long run, will happen in the 
long run, and is the right thing to do, but I’m not sure that’s where our 
short-term tactical effort is going to have the most effect.

If there are currently IPv4-only nameservers, deprecating those, dual-stacking 
them, or replacing them with IPv6-only is a good move.

Agreed, and in your internal environment you can go IPv6 only with NAT/gateway 
at the edge to reach legacy stuff on the outside.  That helps get your people 
used to IPv6-only, and demonstrates the benefits of less configuration, less 
worrying about IP address availability, etc.  If people don’t have a taste of 
how much easier it is, they don’t have a strong incentive to keep moving 
forward.

Ugh.  Policy from 2018.  Has anyone reached out to them to get this fixed?  .NO 
is one of the few ccTLDs we don’t have a relationship with.  Looks like they’re 
using NetNod and Neustar.
