In the world I live in, my ISP was among the very first here to deploy
native IPv6 on DSL *years* ago and is actively seeking IPv6 peering
opportunities with as many networks as possible.

IPv6 connections here are usually as fast if not faster than IPv4
connections.

I suggest you fix your world instead of insisting on breaking everbody
else's by changing a default policy and making it the exact opposite
of what everbody else is doing and what the standards recommend.
