There's also the fact that for most practical purposes, NAT just
works, and IPv6 still doesn't.

I never have any trouble getting my devices to work behind a NAT.  I
have trouble all the time getting them to work (particularly to work
reliably) on IPv6, even behind routers I control.

PS: I realize this is an ongoing sore point so in the interest
of conciseness, I won't be responding to any explanations about
why my IPv6 problems either don't exist or are my own fault.
