If that's the case then a phone should send a DHCPv6-PD request and try 
to get a larger prefix delegated.

What I've see mobile phone vendors trying to pull is some sort of 
proxying that IPv6 prefix down to wifi interface and "share" it with 
wifi users connected to mobile AP. Not entirely how I would do it, but 
they rather chose this option other than sending an DHCPv6-PD request to 
get something larger than /64.
