It has perhaps not been as well known as it deserves to be.  Perhaps
additional publicity here (and any other relevant fora), might nudge
the parties closer to a resolution.  The non-reachability of the
IPv6 C root from a significant portion of IPv6 space is not a healthy
situation.

The error is immediately apparent via DNSViz:
