Actually Comcast is willing to give out more than a /64 to a home, they're waiting for the CPE to catch up.
Catch up to what? Are there dualstack CPE routers out there only able to handle /64 prefix delegation?
I expect that they will eventually come around to giving out /48s, but, for now they seem to feel they need to see the use case develop before they deploy it.
Well-known (in Germany) CPE router vendor AVM supports running WiFi in either bridged or routed mode. In routed mode, LAN ports get the first /64 from the DHCPv6-PD delegated prefix, and the WiFi domain gets the second /64. Et voila, there is the first use case. ;-) This is also why their 6RD implementation doesn't accept anything less than a /63.
