Well, my employer’s AWS bill is in the region of $20m/year and the additional IPv4 tax is on track for adding an additional $250k to that for no benefit at all.

Well, 1.25% is quite tiny. And I'd bet you're not moving to IPv6 anyway, at least not entirely, since a good amount of people are probably accessing your services over IPv4-only connections.

quarter million sounds enough to pay an engineer to make it work w/o v4. then again it's only a 1% increase and might not be worth the effort.
