_Can_ we fix that in some reasonable time? I'm not so sure..
If we fix most of the IPv6 routing problems (doubtful) in 1-2 years,
people can start start placing AAAA records in their main DNS zones in 2-4
years. Is that enough?

So? Bad IPv6 routing happens all the time, for about every non-local
destination. Bad IPv4 routing almost never happens. They aren't
comparable.
