How many users know how to "open a port"? UPnP exists because people don't want to deal with these things.

What's your point?

  |              | IPv4                                | IPv6                                |
  |--------------+-------------------------------------+-------------------------------------|
  | With uPnP    | Unsolicited connection goes through | Unsolicited connection goes through |
  | without uPnP | Unsolicited connection blocked      | Unsolicited connection blocked      |

It's exactly the same in IPv4 and IPv6 just like FeistySkink was suggesting.
