So this actually trumps all > the other arguments: it's 64 bits because it's 64 bits. When someone utters the phrase "it is X because it is X", the rhetorical imperative seems to be to dismiss further conversation (perhaps any internal dialogue as well, which may be the primary purpose). "It is what it is" therefore, there’s nothing more to be said about it...

The below is truth. AS 2914 is one of the larger Internet backbones. If the Internet Archives are to believed they started deployment of IPv6 15+ years ago. I've looked at all configured IPv6 addresses on AS 2914 equipment. Interestingly enough, the below table is a reflection of not only NTT's own addressing, and (since AS2914's core function is to connect networks to each other) also of its peers and customers. In the end, whatever makes the thing work is the thing that will be configured. /127 - 22% /126 - 52% /125 - 0,9% /124 - 0,5% /120 - 0,04% /112 - 0,02% /64 - 23% The above percentages come from grepping through configurations of thousands of interconnections. I'm confident that other networks will show similar prefix length distributions. I'd be interested to see an accomodation for staticly configured environments in the text. Kind regards, Job
