Heck, some people pick a /120 for it or whatever they find nice.
Configuration wise and counting wise /64 is just handy. And if one day
you have multi-access on that link, well, no re-numbering, just enable
it.
That's why /125 is nice for renumbering, and no ND issue.
The "ND" issue now lies at the CPE device of the user, who will most
likely not be able to handle 1GB/s anyway when somebody wants to DDoS
them off the net...
No it doesn't, if I am ::1 then if someone sends 10kpps to random values
of ::X:Y:Z:W on that subnet I have to ND all those.
There is no subnet, only ::2, the rest you can ignore.
What should the router do when someone sends a packet to ::3 on that
subnet? If it's a /64, then it's a subnet with 2^64 active addresses, I
don't understand how you can call it a non-subnet.
Test it out today and complain to your vendor ;)
Wow.
