The biggest issue I see with only giving a /64 is that many residential customers may have have two routers, if the modem is not bridged and does not have WiFi. Another issue would be for people who want to use the guest SSID of many routers. With IPv6 I could see each SSID getting a /64.

Give them a /48. This is IPv6 not IPv4. Take the IPv4 glasses off and put on the IPv6 glasses. Stop constraining your customers because you feel that it is a waste. It is not a waste It will also reduce the number of exceptions you need to process and make over all administration easier.
