You cant go full native without massive application incompatibility
Embedded IPv4 addresses etc ... with only 5% of "potential" content available for standard users let alone IP based VPN clients, RDP, the list is endless of what breaks when you leave dual stack.  You also have issues with bi-directional routing, DR & LI, DNS64 preferences .....

And Holger is right 6rd has the same its own personal problems.

But with 6rd you will end up in the same discussion.
