I am fully aware of that it will very likely be more than one subnet at some

no.  the important point is that all users need to initially have enough
address space that they can attach not just multiple networks, but
multiple layers of networks, at that point.  trying to define the
difference between the two types of end-users is silly.  the reason that
IPv6 has so many bits in its address space is to allow for expansion at
the edges without making addresses variable length.
