I completely agree with that. If using /128 for the match would actually
break something, then yes, change it - but it won't, all it does is change
what would be an undefined match where things agree in /64 to a defined
(if in a way that makes little or no rational sense when observed without
understanding the rule) match.
No built in prefix lengths anywhere please, except where they're actually
required for interoperability - and here it isn't.
