     Why are you doing a DUID for DHCPv4?  That does not make any
sense
and violates POLA/POLS.

See RFC4361.
It's especially relevant for dhcpcd as it's the first dual stack DHCP
client.

This is controllable, by you, the user, in dhcpcd.conf(5)

Not dhclient?

Assuming you're talking about dual stack, well, dhclient supports DHCPv4 OR DHCPv6.
Not both at the same time.

That doesn't meet my criteria of dual stack.
