📄 Description

If you obtain ipv6 connectivity from router via SLAAC/RA, IPv6 works without this option (and worked even before e669dbee63). Moreover, manual twiddling with IPv6 addresses/routes can do more harm than good in this configuration (e.g. when prefix is not static and changes midway due to ADSL reconnect, kernel handles this transparently, while with --ip6= option you are stick to (obsolete and non-working) address specified on firejail start).
Disclaimer: feel free to fix/polish wording/expand/etc, /me not a native speaker.
