I suspect class C IPv4 networks will continue to be standard practice inside homes and small offices. IPv6 requires the software developer to engage a new library to deal with the IPv6 client/server structure as well as DNS and routers. The infrastructure for IPv6 remains largely incomplete. Security software that covers IPv6 is also behind the curve.

Most home and businesses will to use the private non-routable IPv4 addresses for a quite awhile for inside networks and most home uses have no need for a public IP address except what gets assigned to their public interface of the router/modem etc.
I’m surprised Cloud companies like AWS haven’t started charging larger more sophisticated companies for public IP addresses before now

IPv6 is technically much more complex than IPv4 so there is the big hurdle that many are unwilling to jump for what many perceive to be a minimal gain. Will there be an IPv6-lite?

This is the case. There is still a shit-ton of apps and hardware that don’t know what to do with IPV6 addressing schemes.
