well this is not the case. IPv6 has to be enabled, which is the default.

this is similar to the "there is no dhcp protection for ipv4" you said
before.

maybe your opinion why ipv6 deployment should be done now and the risk
is neglectable comes from that you are a good network guy, but you
knowledge of the security issues and impacts are not as deep?
