Yes, you're right. I stand corrected.

I wouldn't know. Here in the US, it is exceedingly difficult to find a large
ISP that supports IPv6. All of the large ISPs have a significant investment in
IPv4 with NAT/CGNAT and are -very- hesitant to change.
It's so much so that all of my computers have IPv6 disabled as there's no need
for it right now.
A side note: here's an interesting opinion article about why IPv6 hasn't had
wide adoption yet in the past 25 years of its existance:

This is quickly becoming off-topic so netmail is welcome or we can move this
somewhere else.
