...you forgot the rest of the conversation:
VP Network: Why doesn't www.google.com return one of these v6 addresses?
Director: Yeah, did do a limited v6 deployment last year, why doesn't i
work?
Net-Admin: We aren't one of the networks that have been individually
vetted by Google to return an AAAA to without complications.
Director: So even with all their scale, influence and technology
resources, they still won't do it by default?
VP Network: Sounds like we can hold back on that budget for another year.
