All this is resolved using IPv6-only and IPv4aaS, the same way as
cellular providers are doing with 464XLAT.

Sure, there are a gazillion ways to provde edge access to both IPv4 and
IPv6.  You can pick anyone you like.  But the extra layers still do not
come for free.

And cellular providers give you a single /64.  Not even useful as IPv6
access for anything larger than a single handset.  Extending that /64 to
something you can use is non-trivial.  How many providers have actually
done that?

And how many end users cared?
