    Maybe if you found some way to run it in a namespace with no ipv4 network.

    Have you set your system to prefer it in gai.conf?

    https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/IPv6#Prefer_IPv4_over_IPv6

    You said enforce in the post, but prefer in a comment. Do you mean prefer ipv6, or disable ipv4?

    You could use a dns server that does not offer any A records.
