Admittedly an interesting thought to encourage propagation, but then
again, you can't treat an IPv6 migration as if IPv4 is just going to
disappear overnight. So, that type of co-existance might actually be a
good thing.  Interop is typically where most issues occur.

Are we building production networks or doing experiments?  IPv6 exhibits
no added functionality over IPv4 + NAT, so why bother?

Pure v4 or v6 stacks are typically no brainers.

Yeah, sure, that's why there are so many broken IPv4 stacks around.
