You forgot to include my quote of your previous E-mail:

If a routing prefix is allocated that is longer than 64 bits, then you
may need address amplification in order to use SLAAC.  The need for
"address amplification" derives from a disparity in the size of the
routing prefix given by ISPs and that which the end user wants to use.
