Silence indicates [whatever I want to happen] :)

I'd rather aggregate all my ptp links into a single /64 than some
notable fraction of a /(64-48).  As a user, I would file bugs against
any vendor that prohibited me from doing so.  As such, I'd say that
codifying a hard requirement for /64 is contrary to what I would
use, EUI-64 not withstanding.  Clearly autoconfig and EUI-64 and
whatnot all require /64s, and I don't have any issue with that.  I
even don't mind requiring /119s (rfc 2526).  But /64?  Yuck.  Makes
a big hole in my aggregation.
