No, as I pointed out in another reply to you, home internet is commonly dual-stack (at least in the US and many other countries), and machines with dual-stack connectivity can and do use IPv6 to connect to sites that support it. You can verify this yourself using Wireshark or similar tools.
Yes, I have done many times. You know what else Wireshark showed me? That even though my ISP and all my equipment have IPv6 addresses, they never use them by default.
Then something is misconfigured in your setup.
It’s amazing to me that you’ve spent hours arguing this point on this thread, when it‘s based on an assumption (dual-stack machines use v4 by default) that is simply, verifiably wrong. If that were true, then you’d be right that nearly all IPv6 usage is attributable to mobile. But it’s not true!
