Sure, that's very common, but these devices are consumer electronics and will get gradually replaced by IPv6-supporting boxes as time goes on. (That is not hand-waving, the generation of boxes with IPv6 support is starting to appear.) Nobody, I think, is denying that there will be a long period of coexistence as a result. That is a separate question from this draft, which gives ISPs space for *growing* their IPv4 customer base. I think that is what upsets people.
