I don’t think anyone is passionate enough about IPv6 for a conspiracy like that, to be honest, especially when there’s a much simpler explanation: SLAAC is both older and much more common, and Google just implemented the bare minimum.

That's probably why. But this is why the defaults matter so much and it's not simply "you do you."
