Ah but it does, because in the absence of ipv4 network instruction you
still build an adhoc network, just as you do for ipv6.

J@mb:nobackup$dns-sd  -G v4 "mb.local"
DATE: ---Wed 15 Nov 2017---
11:04:02.802  ...STARTING...
Timestamp     A/R Flags if Hostname
Address                                      TTL
11:04:02.804  Add     2  5 mb.local.
169.254.36.108                               120

J@mb:nobackup$dns-sd  -G v4 "Zamboni.local"
DATE: ---Wed 15 Nov 2017---
11:06:42.643  ...STARTING...
Timestamp     A/R Flags if Hostname
Address                                      TTL
11:06:42.644  Add     2  5 zamboni.local.
169.254.150.104                              120

if you turn off your ipv4 stack you'll no longer do that.

There is some (possibly misguided) assumption that if you have only
adhoc networking available for a given address faily that your network
is broken. In fact it is not, it is working.
