Don't like what Cogent is doing but just to bring this back to reality Matthew and others out there... What content 
do you think Google has or any other big content provider that is IPV6 only or gives an IPV6 only response to a query

via normal IPV4 routes and IP's.. Till we have exclusive content on
IPV6 or it is a shorter,

it's not relevant (really) that 'you can still get there over v4',
because if your clients have ipv6, they'll ask for both, not
everything happy-eyeballs it's way to success, so
timeouts/frustration/pain occur.

I bet that's where the OP's original questions stem.
