IPV6 address for netlify load balancer

[JJLarky]

I’m trying to set up netlify with domain that is configured through AWS so I can only set A or AAAA records to root domain and can’t use CNAME. I see that I can use 104.198.14.52 for A record, but I have nothing that can be used for AAAA record, so my website becomes ipv4-only for no good reason. Is this kind of information documented somewhere? Can I just use ipv6 address that I get from nslookup [my-site].netlify.com or is that one only dynamic ip address and should not be hard-coded like that?
