No, serious question.
I doubt it. Your suggestion above certainly suggests otherwise, I would say. YOur answers below too. You might as well have claimed "From my experience at work IPv4 is nothing but a PITA that reduces reliability.".
Reliability is fine, I don't understand how ipv6 could possibly reduce reliability of anything.
My experience is with a large dual-stack network that has several class B IPv4 networks.
I can't keep up with that, we only have a /22. Plus RFC1918 of course.
Router advertisements seem to be slow and unreliable, for one thing.
Local implementation issue, I suggest.
Old protocols not supporting v6 are also an issue.
Huh, such as?
Then there was the time when a user could mis-configure their Windows computer
Local implementation issue, I suggest. Who is stupid enough to let users configure their Windows computers?
What's to prevent a bad actor who managed to gain physical access from installing her own router and then siphon off traffic for their own ill deeds?
