No. IPv6 is significantly easier to subnet. I can tell you the start and finish of 2a07:ffdd::/29 from the top of my head (it's 2a07:ffd8:: - 2a07:ffdf:ffff.....), because there's a nibble boundary every 4 bits, which makes it trivial.
IPv6 has 31 nibble boundaries. IPv4 has 3.
Do me a 10.15.121.75/19 from the top of your head.
I would choose working with IPv6 addresses over IPv4 any time of day.
Engineers added 12 additional bytes requiring the switch to a hexadecimal notation, because 255.255.255.255.255.255.255.255.255.255.255.255.255.255.255.255 would be a little bit too long.
