I was just trying to head off the flood of "poorly designed" comments
last time I said such a thing on a different list. ;)

I find /64 convenient because it ends on a nice boundary out of my /48
and for my purposes it's more than enough space. The only annoyance I've
come across was my Cisco devices will only accept an EUI-64 address as a
host address in an ACL. Not a big deal though.
