Form the draft:

"While this work was originally conceived in the context of large
scale Wi-Fi networks, the scope of applicability is much broader."

This is completely true, however most of the draft seems to focus on
the Wi-Fi application. At Facebook, for instance, we intend to deploy
64-bit prefixes on all host in data center which has nothing to do
with Wi-Fi. It might be good if the draft were more generic in this
regard (or renamed if it is expressly intended to solve an issue for
Wi-Fi).

Thanks,
Tom
