The next solution in the same draft https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-spring-srv6-srh-compression-00 does not have the same problem. It has just one copy of the prefix in the destination address. Hence, it could be any length (even bigger the /64).

If you start using address space that might clash, the problem becomes that when you eventually get bought out by each-other that you cannot actually merge your networks as you will have clashing space... But, when you have millions, that should not be a problem right, or you could do what they do with IPv4: NAT NAT NAT NAT NAT.... [..] > It is uSID SRv6 solution.

So, you might want to consider not deploying insecure technology (SRv6) that has very obvious security problems, as has been pointed out on the various IETF lists, or misusing address space for something it is not meant for.
