Perhaps that needs to be documented over in v6ops.

As far as I can tell that is no use for the case of routed network connected to a hotspot, since there is still only one /64 prefix.

You mean multiple /64s for a single mobile device? Rather than fixing 3GPP to support shorter prefixes, which seems simpler.
