I'm a very happy user of IPv6. No problem there.

Labeling IPv4 access as 'IPv6-only' provides the suggestion that this a actually
an IPv6 problem.

It isn't. This is a problem for people who want to stop supporting IPv4 but
realize that they have to keep supporting IPv4 for the next couple of decades.

What I find suprising is that people advocate supporting legacy IPv4 services
in a way that breaks how they are traditionally deployed. 

Oh yeah, we will support IPv4, but only if you upgrade each and every device 
that you expect to use IPv4 on.
