Note that this is purely my own opinion, not necessarily that of my employer, my friends, my family, or even my cat. I asked my cat about cogent IPv6, and all I got was a ghostly hairball as a reply[0].
I would say that if you buy transit for IPv4, you should have congruent relationship with IPv6 as well. A network that does one and not the other is clearly obvious to a skilled engineer. Partitioning networks is bad, and I’d like to see this resolved myself. - Jared
