Lorenzo,

Section 8.3 provides the argument that singleton addresses are needed for
privacy-sensitive communications. For practicality and probably scaling /64
is needed, however for strong privacy singleton addresses would be needed
(to avoid resorting to NAT).

I'm not sure a best practice can be defined here since it may depend on the
application context.
