> Can we define what is a customer edge?

RFC 7084 already includes a definition of what it means:

IPv6 Customer Edge Router:
a node intended for home or small-office use that forwards IPv6 packets not explicitly addressed to itself.  The IPv6 CE router connects the end-user network to a service provider network.

I would suggest not trying to change this definition of this term, because I think that would be confusing. If a more encompassing term is needed, I think it would be better to create a new term.
I would also be strongly opposed to any attempt at a RFC 7084 update that changed the scope of RFC 7084.

> 1) Pure residential
> 2) Residential with small home office
> 3) Residential/techie (with or w/o home office) that have exported services
> (email server, web server, VPN server, etc.).
> 4) Small home office
> 5) SMEs with just use Internet for “browsing”, emailing, etc.
> 6) SMEs as in the previous case that also have exported services (email
> server, web server, VPN server, etc.).

Clearly, 1, 2, and 4 are included in the RFC 7084 definition. If the needs of 3, 5, and 6 are met by a device designed for 1/2/4, then they are certainly welcome to use it. If such a device does not meet the needs of 3/5/6, then it doesn't meet their needs.
