Yes, exactly.
If you do have AAAA records, Let's Encrypt (not unlike other software and services!) will prefer the AAAA records when doing domain validation for your domain. So if you have a correct A record and an incorrect AAAA record, your domain validation process will fail. You can then "fix" this by deleting the AAAA record, but it isn't a fix in the larger scheme of things, but indeed it makes plenty of users happy right away.
