'we don't expect users to demand ipv6'

aside from #nanog folks, who 'demands' ipv6?

Don't they actually 'demand' "access to content on the internet" ?

Since you seem to have a greenfield deployment, why NOT just put v6 in

and probably upgrades to gear that could be avoided by doing it in the
initial installation, right?
