My bet is the number needing more that a single /64 will exceed the number
needing just a /64.  Most phones really need two /64 for tethering and
currently there are lots of kludges to work around only one being available.

As a data point, cerowrt (an openwrt fork) will ask upstream for a /60 or /56
via dhcp-pd, and then burn a /64 for each logical subnet. On a WNDR3800,
it can burn 9 /64s out of the box, and more if you start doing VLAN stuff...
