Is this what this draft tries to propose?  Then the number will be
still 64 in most links used today anyway according to RFC2464.  My
initial impression of the draft is that it even tries to remove that
number for IPv6-over-Ethernet, or even make it independent from
IPv6-over-foo but subject to operator's choice.

If the proposal is really to make the length of the interface
identifier only dependent on IPv6-over-foo (but not on the addressing
architecture spec anymore), I think the draft should explicitly state
so.  I'd still expect a lot of discussion on that proposal, but it
will at least help avoid having some of the controversy we're seeing
in this very long thread.
