Matter is only local networking. Essentially everyone has IPv6 on their local network.

That said, I disagree with the parent statement that v6 isn't going to happen. It's already happening at a steady rate. From the Google stats it's steadily rolling out. Some countries are reaching 100% v6 deployment. I wouldn't be surprised if we eventually see some countries with high v6 deployments see services which are v6 only.

France is extremely close to 100%:

IIRC this has already long happened in some countries with smaller IPv4 pools, can't recall where.
