Comment (by ballerburg9005):

 It is important to note that you can access the entire IPv4 network on an
 IPv6-only connection, for most intents and purposes the same way as if
 using IPv4. But this functionality of IPv6 might have been deliberately
 left disabled by server providers, who want to charge you extra for having
 it run in a normal manner.

 Many people do not understand that an IPv6-only connection is simply
 misconfigured, if it cannot access the IPv4 network via NAT64. There is no
 technological limitation that prevents IPv6-only hosts to talk to IPv4
 addresses. It is basically the same as if using dual stack, just without
 the IPv4 protocol.
