Now, a set of IPv6 policies in which no globally routable prefixes are longer than /32 allows router manufacturers to optimize memory usage and design router tables to only carry those 32 bits of the IPv6 address. We don't have those policies. Supposed-to-be-globally-routable /48s do already exist.
heck, the fatal flaw with this clueles idiocy is that we don't want vendors hard coding anything like this. remember when a/b/c were hard coded in routers and in rip? of the stupid ideas we seem bent on repeating, this seems one of the worst. randy
