Right now, there's no string attached.
As long as the issue of "new player, get IPv6 ASAP" one of the 2 ways to
achieve this is to stop handing out allocations directly, but "lease"
them for X months/years, and recover it if no IPv6 has been deployed in
the meanwhile. The complexity of such a thing is much higher, but if
anybody would find the good wording for this, I would support.
The second one would be "no more IPv4 at all". We're not there yet.

I agree, with the reserve of clearly defining "main site".
