ISPs are facing ever growing costs to continue providing IPv4 services. Could you please be more specific about which costs you are referring to?
It's not like IP transit providers care if they deliver IPv4 or IPv6 bits to you.
Have you priced blocks of IPv4 addresses lately? IPv4 address blocks have a fixed one-time cost, not an ongoing $X/month cost.
