well, tell me this. Have you ever stayed in a hotel that had more than one router? I have.

Yes, I would tend to expect a /64 per room, and controlled information flow by whatever implementation (typical broadband model, firewall model, whatever) between rooms. Ditto in an apartment complex - I would not expect that every apartment is a host, I would assume that an apartment is the equivalent of any other home. http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc5375.txt would suggest that one wants to provide a /60 or /56 to a home - more than one subnet in any event.

Though I think /64 with only one 64 suffix per room (from someone that regularly plugs in two different laptops in my hotel rooms, one at a time).

This "hotel" argument is showing up regularily in this discussion, and is
confusing me.

Why do you expect dedicated routed subnets per room?

My naive approach to "hotels" would have been "one flat /64, autoconfig,
captive portal".  How does the "one /64 per room" model work?
