IPv4 has a cost as well. May as well just go IPv6-only from day one and not pay the IPv4 tax at all. The cost difference between providing IPv6 + IPv4 or just IPv4 from day 1 should be zero. There should be no re-tooling. You just select products that support both initially. It's not like products that support both are more expensive all other things being equal.
