Don't say that! IPv6 transition is a grand success. Look, my ping6 started working too:
$ ping6 ipv6.google.com
:-)

Here I don't have native IPv6, but rather than constantly tell people this as though I was proud of it, I enabled a tunnel a long time ago.
64 bytes from 2a00:1450:8006::63: icmp_seq=1 ttl=56 time=121 ms
For comparison Google via IPv4 gives results like:
64 bytes from 209.85.229.99: icmp_req=1 ttl=57 time=42.5 ms
Almost the entire 80 millisecond difference is tunnel time, as my packet travels via whichever is the closest organisation to provide IPv6 connectivity to refugees like me - my ISP could decide tomorrow that this wasn't acceptable, deploy their own endpoint as per the RFC and that number would be substantially reduced without me (or any other customer) changing a thing. But that would cost money.

Just for comparison, this is from a machine with native IPv6:
% ping6 ipv6.google.com
Not too bad!
