I absolutely agree with this.   Further, I believe that 38 bits of
identifier is plenty for gaining lower collision chances with
non-routable addresses (which is all any of this can possibly achieve).

Hence, I see no real reason at all to stray from FEC0::/10 - and lots
of reasons to remain in that space.
