There is no real incentive to do so, as you can get a huuuuuge block of addresses fairly easily.
No incentive and no sane reason never stopped people from doing weird stuff ;)
The incentive to do this with PI is "save on the costs" - and then, since the PI policy doesn't permit you to give address blocks from the PI space to your access customers, the consequence would be "if you can only give a single IPv6 address to the customers, that's all the customer is going to get" (and the blame will be pointed to the RIPE NCC).
Unless I am mistaken, a /64 PI has the same cost as a /32 PI. That being said, I initially assumed that "differences of technical nature and in sheer abundance" do not matter which was wrong, plain and simple. My natural assumption was that no sub-allocation would ever be smaller than /64, but of course this needs to be put into text. Richard
