Does this ‘unlimited devices behind the host’ include the following case?

  - A host gets a /64 prefix.

  - The host runs for itself an internal ‘Unique-IPv6-Prefix-per-Host’ so that it hands out a /96 prefix to each internal device.

  - In effect, this comes down to /96 prefixes and 32-bit IIDs.

Technically, there’s no reason why this cannot be done, I’d assume. However, would this be forbidden in the sense of the current and related std track documents?
