Side note: I recently tried to get /48 per customer with ARIN on 
repeated emails and they refused.  We were already given an IPv6 block a 
while back.  I told them I wanted to expand it so I could give out a /48 
per customer and that we had more than 65535 customers, which is the 
block we got; 65535 /48s.  I didn't even account for our needs.

Without arguing the reasons, we will have to hand out /56s, rather than 
/48s because of this.  So, it's not all /48-unicorns, puppies and rainbows.
