If you have a reason to install and enable 6to4, why would the nominal

This seems like an easy question to answer. You'd implement and use
6to4v2 because it works better than the historic 6to4 protocol.
It seems like there is this deep philosophical discussion about historic
status. From what I can tell, ietf sent nat-pt to historic well before nat64
came about. Many people were using nat-pt too ... but going to historic
forced things along. It was a good choice in hindsight.
And natpt implementations still exist and are used by consenting adults. At a
previous employer we were considering the business case for an implementation
well after it's historic status. better solutions came along.
