Like I said -

I was just assuming that people who promote v6 as the best thing since sliced bread, 
and needed because v4 space is really really scarce now, are going to actually find 
enough toasters, printers, phones, computers or whatever to fill all those /48s that are 
getting allocated.

With all due respect (!) to the v6 promotion councils out there, I
doubt, for the same reasons you do, that there'll ever be enough v6
capable hosts out there, toasters or not, to fill even a single /48,
for a long time .. but when there are .. ouch.
