WebOS implemented IPv6 in 3.8 IIRC.

Disney should hire some proper developers and QA team.
RFC 1123 instructed developers to make sure your products handled multi-homed servers properly and dealing with one 
of the addresses being unreachable is part of that.  It’s not like the app can’t attempt to a stream from the IPv6 
address and if there is no response in 200ms start a parallel attempt from the IPv4 address.  If the IPv6 stream 
succeeds drop the IPv4 stream  Happy Eyeballs is just a specific case of multi-homed servers.
QA should have test scenarios where the app has a dual stack network and the servers are silently untraceable over 
one then the other transport.  It isn’t hard to do.  Dealing with broken networks is something every application 
should do.
