My understanding is that the RIRs are doing sparse allocation, as opposed to reserving a few bits. I could be wrong.
Last I heard, with the exception of APNIC and contrary to what they indicated they'd do prior to IANA allocating the /12s, you are indeed wrong. I'd be happy to hear things have changed.
Only APNIC is doing "bisection" style assignments today: 20091001|apnic|AU|ipv6|2402:c00::|32|allocated 20091001|apnic|SG|ipv6|2402:400::|32|allocated 20091005|apnic|JP|ipv6|2402:1400::|32|allocated 20091006|apnic|NZ|ipv6|2402:1c00::|32|allocated 20090930|arin|US|ipv6|2607:fd70::|32|allocated 20090930|arin|CA|ipv6|2607:fd78::|32|allocated 20091001|arin|US|ipv6|2607:fd80::|32|allocated 20091006|arin|US|ipv6|2607:fd88::|32|allocated 20091005|ripencc|RU|ipv6|2a00:1440::|32|allocated 20091005|ripencc|SI|ipv6|2a00:1448::|32|allocated 20091005|ripencc|IE|ipv6|2a00:1450::|32|allocated 20091005|ripencc|BE|ipv6|2a00:1458::|32|allocated 20090709|lacnic|PY|ipv6|2800:3a0::|32|allocated 20090714|lacnic|CL|ipv6|2800:3b0::|32|allocated 20090807|lacnic|GY|ipv6|2800:3c0::|32|allocated 20090903|lacnic|AR|ipv6|2800:3d0::|32|allocated 20090708|afrinic|GH|ipv6|2001:43c0::|32|allocated 20090729|afrinic|EG|ipv6|2001:43c8::|32|allocated 20090813|afrinic|KE|ipv6|2001:43d0::|32|allocated 20090909|afrinic|ZA|ipv6|2001:43d8::|32|allocated - Kevin
