(Obligatory "anecdotal, but") I noticed that some routers have a very limited DHCP server, for example being limited to 100 simultaneously-connected devices only. Multi-tenant households with IoT devices may approach that number, the highest number I've seen is around 80 currently.
The S in IoT stands for security, of course. But it's going to be a bummer if my IoT devices forces me or my guests out of my network.
IPv6 can be made stateless with SLAAC so DHCP (and any DHCP-related limitations in the router) are completely out of the picture.
