Certainly.

Customer support, especially network troubleshootings and so on...

Customer support for IPv6 costs a lot, at least because of:

   1) Unnecessarily lengthy IP addresses, not recognized by most, if not
      all, customers

   2) Lack of so promised automatic renumbering

   3) So stateful SLAAC

So upgrade hardware and network admins are NOT sufficient for IPv6
adoption ;)

Upgrade IETF to upgrade IPv6.
