There aren’t many benefits from using IPv6 on LAN, as far as I can tell, unless you need more addresses than are available in the private address ranges.
Doesn’t need to be a “traditional” container. Modulo noisy-neighbour issues, wasm sandboxing could potentially offer an order of magnitude better density (depending on what you’re running; this might be more suited to specific tasks than providing a substrate for a general-purpose conpute service).

wasm sandboxes can take IPs? Regardless, if we’re just talking density, I can put multiple IPs on a single interface or create a ton of virtual interfaces. That’s boring, though.

And that point you’re not in a home, you’re in a data center lmao
I mean, if you have around 17 million containers running services, maybe.
@BaldProphet
What’s the smallest container around? How much RAM would that take?
edit: FROM scratch let’s you run bare binaries on Docker.
Would be very interesting to see how far that could get. What sort of payload/task would be interesting for all those containers?

Yes. The sandbox gets whatever capabilities you expose to it.
