The reason for allocating a /64 for a point to point link is due to various denial of service attack vectors.

Hi Matthew,

I'm always interested in learning something new. Please explain the
DOS vectors you're referring to and how they're mitigated by

No. But if you offer a good reason, I'll factor your reason in to my
considerations.
