Just my thoughts, how many network admins had to struggle that IPv6 focused on zero config and didn’t align in how enterprises manage their networks? DHCPv6 vs. SLAAC, the /64 prefix requirement for using SLACC, prefix delegation, RA’s and the content in the payload, devices that only used SLAAC and no reliable way to do reserved addressing. Oh and the ISPs not following the rules. All this piled up as a headache for enterprise network managers and they just said, skip it.
