Actually, this isn’t true.

It just means _EXTRA_ NS entries.

For example, 2001:db8:beef::/48 can be delegated as 
f.e.e.b.8.b.d.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. as a single NS record set.

However, to delegate 2001:db8:beef:e000::/49, one needs two NS delegations:
        e.f.e.e.b.8.b.d.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa.
and     f.f.e.e.b.8.d.b.0.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa.

No CNAME requirement at all.

CNAME tricks would only come into play if delegating reverse for prefixes 
longer than /124. (Just as in IPv4, they only come into play longer than /24).
