Things like happy-eyeballs diminish it even with perfect IPv6
connectivity.  100ms rtt doesn't cover the world and to make
multi-homed servers (includes dual stack) work well clients will
make additional connections.

Is happy eyeballs actually running code ANYWHERE?

Owen

Chrome does something close using 300ms.  There is code out there
that does it and there really should be lots more of it as it mitigates
lots of problems.
