After 10 years have passed, hopefully most of the implementations will be ready. But again, it's not clear that we actually need to do this now.

For one thing, what do you do if an implementation doesn't make the change in that time table and still lands in this new block?

Worse, I'd say. If my ISP flash-renumbered me into 4404:4400:5d14:7800::/52 tonight and SLAAC would suddenly only work with /80, I'd be irrevocably down (unless IPv4 still worked, or I was also running ULA/64+NPTv6).
