Both networks are in a position to easily remedy the situation if they
were pragmatically inclined. For example, Cogent could simply accept
HE's offer to peer; HE could simply pick up Cogent's IPv6 routes from
their existing transit provider TSIC.

Instead they both choose to continue their game of chicken to the
detriment of both of their customer bases.

Fortunately there's no shortage of competitors to HE and Cogent who
prioritise providing connectivity higher than engaging in such
nonsense. Vote with your wallets, folks.
