You are likely to be unable to source the missing IPv4 traffic over IPv6.

I’m not familiar with JIO’s setup, but that’s an interesting question. If their IPv6 was down, would their network still be able to deliver? Would they run out of CGNAT capacity or IPv4 translations?

If their IPv6 failed, they would almost certainly run with significant service disruption.

IPv6 is no longer optional for them. I suspect it's not optional for T-Mobile USA either. Or Facebook/Google/Netflix.

Don’t think IPv4 is optional for any of them either.
