Context:
People have been asking for IPv6 Support on GitHub since years (probably a decade by now)

Because I can remember an IPv4 address and not a V6 address!
At least they could have added an extra octet to v4 instead of making it garbyremoved looking
You are not expected to remember a v6 address - or even v4 for that matter. They are designed for machines. DNS is designed for humans.
This is a good (and fair) point.
However they still look ugly and scary and intimidating :)
