Background on the 64 bit boundary in IPv6 > addresses can be found in [RFC7421]. Just some minor edits, to tie together the ideas. NEW IPv6 routing is based on prefixes of any valid length up to 128 [BCP198]. For example, [RFC6164] standardises 127 bit prefixes on point-to-point links. However, consistent use of Stateless Address Autoconfiguration (SLAAC)[RFC4862] requires all interfaces on a link to use the same length of Interface ID. Furthermore, to guarantee robust interoperability of SLAAC, a standard, fixed length of Interface ID is necessary. For this reason, the Interface ID of all currently allocated unicast addresses, except those that start with the binary value 000, are required to be 64 bits long. Background on the 64 bit boundary in IPv6 addresses can be found in [RFC7421]. I don't think that SLAAC *must* require a single standard IID length, so that's why I added the word "robust." Now that we have moved away from using the MAC address for SLAAC, it's not clear to me why a host cannot wait for a RA, and then decide on how many IID bits to use, based on the prefix length(s) advertised by the router.
