And I would consider a detailed argument on why it is more secure to disable it to be a good reason.

Personally? I consider an IT team who don't know how to secure an ipv6 enabled network to not be competent. But that is a different conversation.

Yeah, I run dual stack without much trouble myself. I believe it is mainly difficult for people because eyeball diagnostics are impossible with 6.

My detailed explanation at my old job is that the dev team was full of idiots who hardcoded ipv4 addresses into their fucking code. Seriously. When we migrated from data center to cloud they had to go patch everything. The CTO wouldn't do shit about it and the director was just there riding things out until retirement.

It has less eyes on it due to it being less popular. It also introduces an extra vector of attack.
