IPv6 Support for DayZ Server

I perfectly realize that writing this is more than likely a complete waste of time but maybe someone knows more than I do.

Is there any reason whatsoever for BI seemingly hating IPv6? None of their games support it. For Arma 3 it makes some sense considering its age and lack of further development. For DayZ the age argument also holds true even if it would be nice to see some remaining developer resources being assigned to implement IPv6 support. Lastly for Reforger I can't think of a reason beyond simply noone at BI caring about it and if they did they could probably backport it from Reforger to DayZ?

The lack of IPv6 support makes it effectively impossible to host a server for an increasing number of users. My own provider flat out refuses to give out IPv4 addresses for regular consumers even if asked.
