Probably a bit, though I have noticed an upward trend in v6 support with ISPs.

When I was using Spectrum, was pleased to find they had (barely-passable) support, SLAAC wasn't a thing IIRC. Google Fiber has done well and so did AT&T's offering

Ok, fair enough. If Spectrum and AT&T both support v6 now (edit: Comcast/Xfinity too!), then that probably does cover a good portion of the wired ISP market.

SLAAC doesn't delegate address space. That's why ISPs use DHCPv6. You can get a /60 from Comcast and a /48 from many other ISPs.
