It's also a privacy issue, in fact it's mandatory in some European countries because otherwise you'd be easily tracked by your address, but it's also mandated you can get a static one if you ask.
You're correct, but the issue is that static IPv6 isn’t even available as an option—at least in my experience with two ISPs in my country. It may be different in other places.
