Yeah, considering NFSv4 was published almost 20 years ago (December 2000), not supporting it is kinda disappointing.

I'm unfamiliar, what does NFSv4 add that Cloud Filestore users will be missing out on?

A good place to start is to read the introduction chapter of the NFSv4.0 RFC: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7530

Further minor versions add other things that could be useful for cloud usage, e.g. in NFSv4.1 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5661 ) parallel data access, sessions, improved delegations, and in NFSv4.2 (https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7862 ) server-side clone/copy, sparse file support.
