I love ipv6 but I don’t see how it is related to anything here

Yes your description is just right and is the heart of my question. To use your terminology:
Currently away from home: Phone -> VM -> Home Server Currently at home: Phone -> VM -> Home Server (inefficient!)
Ideally away from home: Phone -> VM -> Home Server Ideally at home: Phone -> Home Server
In the ideal case, I would never have to change anything about the wireguard config/status on the Phone, nor would I have to change the domain name used to reach the resource on the Home Server.

Oh hm I didn’t think about your last point, maybe it’s not really an issue at all. I guess I’m not 100% how the wireguard networking works.
Suppose I tunnel all of my traffic through wireguard on the remote server. Say that while I am home, I request
foo.local, which on the remote server DNS maps to a wireguard address corresponding to my home machine. The remote will return to me the wireguard address corresponding to the home machine, and then I will try and go to that wireguard address. Will the router recognize that that wireguard address is local and not send it out to the remote? - Comment on How to Use Local IP for Services when at Home? 2 weeks ago:
Yes that would work, but it feels a bit cumbersome to have 2 fqdns per service, which I would have to switch between using depending on on whether I’m local or not.

Right but I want to be connected to wireguard always, I just want the DNS/routing to be different based on wifi/mobile.

And so when away do you just directly connect to the external IP and do port forwarding?

So you have a public DNS record pointing to your home IP?
