Good luck sending emails with IPv6.

I do it already. Well, both IPv4 and IPv6. There's a decent number of IPv6 capable MX's out there, the most prominent being GMail.

If you were meaning IPv6-only then yes that would be pretty bad.

It works fine with Gmail. And since G Suite is so widely used, tons of domains can send/receive mail over IPv6 just fine.

Why should that be an issue?

Some mail-admins will downgrade IPv6-only MX servers reputation-wise, due to the limiting/cost-increasing factor of IPv4 Addresses.
