Yeah they ran out of v4 addresses a little while back, but you can always get an IPv6 address from them. To avoid having most people get confused by IPv6 though they seem to have some form of layered IPv4 NAT (one IP per building or something, and then your "own" IP), which in a different building I discovered and found more confusing than "oh look, just straightforward v6 only".

An ISP that doesn't provide at least outbound IPv4 connectivity would rapidly lose all of its customers.

IPv6-only with NAT64 is doable when you control the set of attached devices; see T-Mobile US, with phones that implement 464XLAT.
