Hi Dave, You're quite right that "IPv6 Works" is applied rather liberally. This is because we wanted it to be a broad indicator that it isn't a complete waste of time scheduling IPv6 measurements on a probe. We have discussed in the past creating some kind of "IPv6 Stable" or "IPv6 Reliable" tag to capture what you are talking about -- i.e. those probes where you can be pretty sure that IPv6 is going to work, barring some exceptional issues. I expect that we will work on this kind of tag in the future (although I can't currently say when), especially if we get more feedback along these lines.
