That's essentially what I'm getting at.  If the v6 addresses/blocks are
allocated in a similar fashion to IPv4, where the octets are clearly named
by state and "hsd1", then I don't see why they should lack PTR.

With the small # of IPv4 addresses, generating PTRs was not a big deal.
That is not the case for IPv6 and I believe most large scale network
operators would agree with that.

However, even if they're not assigned or delegated in that way, it'd be
helpful to have SOME form of PTR on there.

Helpful for what, precisely?
