There's always a customer that bridges the PPP connection to a PC on which the connection is terminated.

And though we don't want it, modems will turn up that do IPv6 NAT.

And what address do you think will be used as source address for connections originating from the CPE ? Like SIP ?

In all those cases, the WAN address is used for outgoing connections.

The advantage is that you *know* what address or range the CPE has. If
it also uses an address gotten via SLAAC on the WAN interface, how are
you going to find the customer when the government asks "who is (or was)
behind this IPv6 address" and it's from your shared pool ?
