This discussion does not belong here. The RIRs responsibilities are what's on the right of /64, not what's on the left.
Hummm? You're a bit confused about left and right?
However: what would be the right forum to do this discussion? v6ops seems to be about other things, and the other IPv6 related WGs at IETF seem to be shutdown or dead.
I didn't start the discussion here, but I think that it's not overly off-topic. People reading this list are trying to *deploy* IPv6, and as such, problems show up.
This is certainly a discussion that one can have on this list. We are a list that talks about technical issues related to getting ipv6 deployed. That sometimes means that we can find that there is an operational problem with a standard - at other times, policies of the RIRs might make our life more difficult. In either case, it is certainly within our charter to report problems and to talk about solutions, and to bring them to the attention of the IETF when it is about standards and to the lir working group when it is about policy.
