This is a point that is probably more significant than is appreciated. If the

IT, and networking ecosystem don't even have access to ipv6 to play around wi

you can be guaranteed that they are going to be hesitant about lighting v6 up

I've had IPv6 for nearly a decade with no help from my ISP. I
needed it to do IPv6 developement. It isn't hard to get IPv6 if
you need it.
The point is that most developers and others don't think they
"need" it so they don't seek it out. If there were far more native
v6 (ie, that it's there without having to do something proactive),
the app problems would almost certainly work themselves out
because it would become apparent.
