You might not have noticed, but I have done a bit of IPv6 over time,
so yes, I understand.  And thus: 6to4 needs to die.  In flames.

This is not solved by poor-quality tunnels.  All these tunnels do is
"make IPv6 look bad", so people get to learn "IPv6 has more latency, more
packet loss, and I can not even call customer support if it does not
work, so better avoid it".

This was already accepted truth 10+ years ago.
