I've been saying this too. Don't tell me that going from 8.8.8.8 to :whatever::the::heck:::: is an upgrade.
First step of dual-stack networks should've been, every device's IPv6 address is the same as the IPv4 address, just padded technically, and represented textually the same. If I put in 8.8.8.8 and the systems want to speak IPv6 instead, go ahead. A little hacky but addresses (no pun intended) both technical and marketing problems. You could even use a v4 DHCP server and DNS but speak IPv6, instead of trying to sell people on a whole stack change at once.
