There is no point in repeating all the IPv4 mistakes with IPv6, if that's what you want, stay on IPv4.

As should be apparent by now, the vast majority of people don't want to move to IPv6.  They simply want access to "the 
Internet". ISPs are looking for the easiest/cheapest way to do this, which generally means the way they've done it in 
the past.  Forcing them to change simply slows things down.
