Most of the major ISPs own big chunks of the IPv4 space and many smaller ones have been using CGN in a NAT44 configuration for what feels like forever. If you've already invested in that ecosystem with more than enough capacity, using techniques like NAT46, IVI, provider 464XLAT, etc. isn't that much more difficult. A lot of the enterprise-level network gear is already IPv6 internally and can handle it just fine. But it really comes back to the chicken-and-egg problem combined with the ability for each side to point their finger at the other when something breaks.
