> By observation, > folks are giving out /64s, when we would prefer they gave out /56 > or even shorter. I'd say that a /56 is a clear example of the race to the bottom. ISPs have been trying to give just a /128 to customers, just like IPv4. There is a common complaint that a 64-bit IID just wastes bits without stating how those bits are more useful as part of the prefix. And somehow the original 'give everybody a /48' got changed into '/56 is also fine' without clear operational reason. The only one I can think of is 6RD, but /56 shows up everywhere outside 6RD. Why /56? because /48 has way too many subnets for a consumer. Again preserving bits that don't need to be preserved. This tendency to use the longest possible prefix for a network or subnet is very strong.
