What I was thinking was that users could pay for different classes of service. Basic service could be a /64 (or /63 or /62). Premium service could be a /60. Super-premium could be a /56, etc. Point being that the mechanism should support any prefix delegation size that the user has contracted with the service provider for; not just a fixed one-size-fits-all size for all users.
