The fact that the private IPv4 block is not globally reachable counts for something. If I accidentally give you my private IP (192.168.17.102, by the way!) you can't do anything, absent other details, no matter how much misconfiguration occurs. If I give you my IPv6 GUA, there's a lot more variability.
IPv6 has private blocks too. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unique_local_address
