We need a bias for one or the other protocol. Otherwise you'll end up
flipflopping between v4 and v6 for subsequent connections if both are
equal (because the networks in beween just run v4 and v6 over the same
links, same devices, same peerings, ...) - and that is a major annoyance
when trying to troubleshoot things. Like, web server access that
"sometimes works and on reload brings an error" (because apache ACLs
are not in sync for v4 vs. v6).
In the long run, we want a single protocol, whichever it is. Dual-stack
is dual-work.
