Just a thought - ipv4 includes older more rural connections such as 1M DSL out in the sticks. That weighs the average connection time down. v6 being capable on modern 4G wireless and fiber connections makes the average faster.

Wherein akamai explains a detailed study showing ipv6 is "well over 10%" faster than ipv4 on mobile, and they reference corroborating studies from Linkedin and Facebook.
Fair to ask your business 1) does mobile performance matter 2) are you taking advantage of this 10% page load speedup that ipv6
provides?
srs question: "What percentage of the mobile world prefers v6 over v4?"
I ask because perhaps the market for your app is such that v6 is actually a hinderance to the userbase... (or is slower in your market)
Are there more holistic studies about this?
