I am afraid you are tailor making your case. We could just as well have an
even more clueless customer that simply buys a 4G/5G router and attaches it
to the inside of his LAN in addition to the wifi router he got from his
DSL/cable/xPON service. Guess what will happen? It wont work as far as IPv4
goes but it _will_ work with IPv6.

As for the tailor made case where the customer buys a device actually made
for this, said device would also implement IPv6 for dual WAN. Plenty of
options for how the device could do that, including the possibility of
doing 1:1 stateless IPv6 NAT or simply presenting both prefixes to the LAN
and source route to the correct ISP.
