rfc3927 does not require 64 bits and works sufficiently well wherever it

however many bits are available to it and it should be a standard
feature to turn that knob all the way from on - off with 128 bit stops
in between.
Feel free to explain how SLAAC should work on a /96 with 32 bits of host address
(or any amount smaller than the 48 bits most MAC addresses provide). Remember
in your answer to deal with collisions.
Is there something fundamentally wrong with rfc3927?
It's one thing to say "it should be redesigned". It's another matter entirely
to actually
come up with a scheme that doesn't suck even harder than "screw it, it's a /64".
I dont have to, its already been done. In ipv4.
