Different target customers.  For "end user" customers, NAT66 is no longer
needed or desirable - but Petra (in this thread) is talking about medium
sized enterprises that do not want a slot in the global routing table, 
and at the same time want to be multihomed to multiple providers, and 
*not* have multiple /64s on every LAN in the enterprise.

Enterprises do not want e2e transparency regarding their networks - they
want well-controlled and well-regulated communications, managed by a 
border gateway device (call it firewall, nat box, ...).
