Why do you say that? Is a ~60 minute TTL too short for a home device? I don't think so. As soon as the old address is deprecated, you remove the record pointing to it--you don't keep it around. You install AAAA records only for non-deprecated addresses. Why is this a problem? Why the need for a 36 hour timeframe?24 ho
36 hours is a number plucked out of thin air by me that is longer than 24 hours, which is a historic default refresh time for many DNS servers e.g. RFC1912 https://www.ripe.net/ripe/docs/ripe-203 . One hour TTL could mean 24 times the DNS traffic compared to that historic norm. It also could mean (re)signing DNSSEC zones more than 24 times per day as hosts move around the homenet.......

So it's clearly a trade off.

What's the difference in practical terms between 1 second, 1 minute, 1 hour, and 1 day?

You either have more name resolution traffic (every day), or you have more temporary addresses and old prefixes hanging around for longer (during a renumbering event, which is presumably not every day).

Any operators got any input on how often they propose to rotate prefixes on domestic connections?
