Context:

People have been asking for IPv6 Support on GitHub since years (probably a decade by now)

that’s our ISPs’ problem

If the Internet means for you a way to access Facebook, Netflix, Google and YouTube, yeah.
But if it means a network to send something to another computer then it's a huge problem.

Because ISP won't care if you can accept connections or not. They don't care about decentralization and being able to host stuff yourself. Most consumers just want a pipe to big services and not to their friend's house.
