Matter integration is stil buggy

A separate network is created for matter

My understanding as well...

IPv6 will be the Death of Matter and Thread (Or Not)

No you don't need to turn on ipv6 in your router. Thread matter devices will create their own ipv6 mesh...

Matter over Thread devices are little more complicated than other Matter devices. Thread uses the same 2.GHz radio as Zigbee. However, instead of using the Zigbee wireless mesh protocol, Matter over Thread devices use the IPv6 Matter over Thread protocol. In order for these Thread devices to communicate with matter Controller devices, there must be at least one Thread Border Router (TBR) device on you home network. The device that is acting as the TBR is involved in all communications between Matter Controllers and the Matter over Thread devices. Thus, Hubitat would have to rely on the TBR (e.g. an Apple HomePod Mini or an AppleTV 4K w/Ethernet) to communicate with any Matter over Thread devices.
