When you base decision on imaginary figures, you get suboptimal results.

the SNR of UGC in IPv4 is like 10x times it is in IPv6

My experience, using fail2band, and spamassassin, for over a decade with
IPv6, is that 100x more spam and other abuse comes from IPv4, not IPv6.

your management would start asking questions
about whether it's really the best time to invest in this rather than
in another potential revenue stream.

Now what would your management thinK?  Then toss in that IPv6 is faster
than IPv4.  Dunno why, but easy to prove that for yourself.  If you care
to experiment, rather than make up figures.
