Not sure it's an either/or situation. Even if you deploy IPv6
everywhere you still have to offer IPv4 reachability for your
customers.

Hopefully what Robert is observing is not an alternative to IPv6,
rather it's a means of giving customers access to those recalcitrant
IPv4-only destinations.

On the bright side, the more IPv6 you deploy the less traffic will
need to pass through your CGN. IOWs, deploying IPV6 could actually
save you some coin!
