Same view.
It can also be viewed as a tradeoff between customizable services and the 
triple [ease of operation, scalability, investment cost].

With the customizable service you want, this is clearly a solution.

But this of course doesn't prohibit others providers to prefer more 
standardized services (for residual IPv4 connectivity across IPv6-only) to 
privilege ease of operation, scalability, and investment costs.

The tradeoff could then be summarized as:
 +----------------------------+--------------------+-----------------+
 |                            |  Stateful (4over6) | Stateless (4rd) |
 +----------------------------+--------------------+-----------------+
 |    Customizable services   |          +         |        -        |
 | -------------------------- | ------------------ | --------------- |
 |      Ease of operation     |          -         |        +        |
 | -------------------------- | ------------------ | --------------- |
 |         Scalability        |          -         |        +        |
 | -------------------------- | ------------------ | --------------- |
 |       Invetment cost       |          -         |        +        |
 |        minimization        |                    |                 |
 +----------------------------+--------------------+-----------------+
Does this make sense to you?
