If ARIN's fee structure is such that it is financially advantageous for any class of network operators to turn off

The situation is exactly opposite

And yet you have people reporting that ARIN's fee schedule offers
dissuasion for their deployments of IPv6. Right here in this email
thread. How can that be?

Don't gaslight us John. Seriously, it's not cool. ARIN fees make IPv6
registration a neutral prospect for only a fraction of its
registrants. You've presented something as broadly true that isn't.
Those of us for whom your claim is false don't appreciate the
insinuation that we've misrepresented ARIN's behavior.
