Staying on the bleeding edge of silicon requires massive investment, which they weren't willing to make.

Essentially the hardware doesn't support scaling a /64 or /56 to each customer, leaving OP in a terrible position when it comes to proper IPv6 deployment.
When you look at Ziply Fiber, they seem to be ripping out these types of Enterprise grade routers left and right in favor of a simple Linux box doing routing. I think a large portion of why they're doing this is due to limitations like what OP is experiencing
We have large networks that are essentially rolling on autopilot totally unmanaged, like Lumen'e recently sold Quantum Fiber asset that is now owned by AT&T holding company Forged Fiber 37 LLC
No native IPv6 still on this forgotten about network, 6RD keeps having weird routability issues, but if you just disable IPv6 everything works fine.
Even circuit switched networks are not often below 30ms, to hit that you'd need to make a local phone call on a fully analog circuit.
Always ask for the Port Order Number (PON) so you can follow up with the other carrier to see what they received from VoIP.ms
I've talked to a few tangentially and it seems like an interesting space.
Very hard to make the latter usable by anyone else IMO.
