I agree with you, this is a great assessment. And of course I'm in group two. I'm sure it's the router's fault, but other than IPv6 it works great, so there isn't really much reason to change it or dig into it. I'll just wait until I actually need v6 and then worry about it.

And, each group is probably an order of magnitude smaller than the one before it - nearly everyone just uses their ISP's router.

A small number of people use routers you can buy from Amazon, or in a store.

A really tiny number of people use more professional equipment at home.

The problem is, most IT professionals fall into one of the smaller two groups, so they get more friction than others, and that leads to them having more reluctance to roll out v6 at work, etc.
