I can imagine router-router pt-pt links within a single domain (i.e. not the link from the ISP to my house) could use different prefix lengths than the other pt-pt links. There shouldn't be any privacy considerations for the former. But such router-router links might also not need any IPv6 addresses (except the link local addresses assigned to the two attached interfaces).
