I agree with your conclusion, however, your premise is not correct — technically, HE is /not/ requiring you to purchase IPv6 from them; in fact, they're rather openly giving away IPv6, including IPv6 transit, away for free. My understanding is that this includes both the tunnels (including BGP) and the on-premise connectivity options. So, feel free to ask for your money back from HE, and try that with Cogent, too!
