Reading this thread, and building on many comments to a previous one,
I definitely see the need for subnetting a /64 arising sooner than

It might not be perfect, It might be ugly, but it will happen. And, if
you ask me, I would rather subnet a /64 than end up with a ipv6
version of NAT, a much worse alternative.

Maybe not NAT but some kind of proxy ND and/or a migration from routing firewalls to bridging firewalls. If the broadband provider is only providing a single /64, it's not likely they're gonna be willing to add routes to your gateway.
