Its really not possible to remember an IPv6. I mean it is but its really an abandonment on human level and a solution that leverage dhcp which was common anyway. Its about as easy as a hardware address.

skill issue. Your ISP isn't giving you a /128, you don't have to remember a whole ass SLAAC address. My desktop has like 4 IPv6 addresses most of the time, but I only have to remember the one I assigned it and my network prefix. This is one of the advantages of IPv6; you can have an easy to remember, and SLAAC, and privacy-extension addresses all at once.

I can't prove it, but I'm typing this from my head- 2a05:f6c7:8321::10
That's about as human readable as IPv4.
