The current ULA-C has the problem of allocating /48s. A manufacturer
would have to request many of them and the fixed 16-bit subnet ID
structure given in the spec isn't suitable for many of these applications.

For OUI exhaustion I don't agree. The currently public OUI assigned
numbers of IEEE are around 16.000. Maybe this isn't directly comparable,
but provides at least a rough estimate.
