Maybe because in doing so they show they can actually think natively with IPv6 
addresses? (You'd perhaps be surprised by the number of people I run into even 
today who treat each v6 address like it's something they have to send through  
a translator to understand).

This seems worthwhile.  Anecdotally, I've seen that engineering teams which 
include IPv6 examples in their design docs
(eg, showing sample configurations or sample config screens or test case 
examples) seem much more likely
to properly implement and test IPv6 support as a first-class feature.
