No problem as the actual implementation at the consumer end is probably similar. There will be some device between the provider network and the consumer network, be that dial or always-on. The device needs either a /48 so it can provide subnet based routing, or a /64 so it can provide a bridged subnet capability. > This is in conflict with IAB/IESG recommendations for address > assignments > (draft-iesg-ipv6-addressing-recommendations-03.txt).

Except in the private network context, there is never a reason to believe that only a single device is connected, even a cell phone might be a router/bridge.
