Yup. I work at a large, complicated infrastructure organization. Our firewall guy has a lot on his plate. Having him manage the security concerns for IPv4 and IPv6 is a bad idea when considering the tasks we have and the labor available. Similarly, having the networking team implement IPv6 on top of their already significant projects results in less time available to do other things.
I look forward to the day when IPv6 is easy and universal, but I can completely understand why many admins aren't bothering.
