Nothing's realistically dropping support for v4 any time soon, so v6 support is optional. On the other hand, we're far, far away from all users supporting v6, so v4 support is not optional.
Running a single IP stack is infinitely simpler and easier than running two concurrently, and until that "single IP stack" can be v6, I see very little reason to support it.
Fun fact: US government agencies are required to progressively migrate to IPv6-only environment, beginning with completing at least one pilot of IPv6-only system by FY 2021: https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/M-21-0.... Apparently, National Archives decided to pick archived Clinton White House website for this: https://clintonwhitehouse1.archives.gov/
