The cynic in me says they might do it just so they could charge more for more

PS - some ISPs are also going to hand-out /60s to clients, and hold onto the 
'saved' 4 bits for misc. service delivery / future growth to that client (not 
my idea, just sharing with the class!)

Yes, they could.
If that allowed them to save something somewhere else.
Since I don't see why it would save them anything, it would seem that if 
we can give them reasoanble ways to behave they will do so.

PS: Yes, some operators are handing out /60s.  They seem to be operating 
from a fear of scarcity and a lack of understanding of how much space 
they have.
