Plenty of people are stuck with CG-NAT – with (sometimes) the option of paying for a "business" connection with a routable IPv4 address. Customers of smaller/newer ISPs, or even larger ISPs in some countries, are affected. On IPv4, they are second-rate internet users, limited to consumption only.
The world moving to IPv6 helps them, since they can then use the internet equally, running servers, remote desktop, etc.
