Of course one can survive 60 minutes of network outage. I could
also survive a broken finger, but I'm still carefeful when I
use a hammer. Just because people could survive an outage is
no reason to inflict one on ourselves.
This issue will only develop into an outage if you bring the wrong
survival tools: I suggest you leave your hammer home and make sure
that you can use ipv6 only. There is no rocket science here. People
have done this before.

PS If there is a need for hammers in order to break fingers or to
make ipv6 working, I suspect one can easily borrow one from the
construction crews
