I guess I was thinking about v4 modems which do not get a subnet, just an IP address. If we really are handing out a /64 to each DSL & Cable modem, then we may very well be recreating the same problem.
IPv4 thinking. A single /64 isn't enough for a home user, because their gateway is a router and needs a different prefix at both sides. Users may also want to subnet their own network. So they need at least something like a /60.
