Hi Sander,

Thank you for clarification.

I agree.  An ISP delegating a /96 to an end-user is probably too long a
prefix for SLAAC/Ethernet to work.

In that sense, the ISP should be told to allocate at least a /63 (not a
/64) because of same SLAAC/Ethernet allowing only _one_ subnet if /64,
and allowing no subnet at all if /96.

But, AFAIK nobody could persuade a cellular ISP to provide a /63
rather than a /64 to UE.

Which brings back the question of why /64.
