In response to various comments to this message, I’d like to propose a
refinement:
IPv6 unicast routing is based on prefixes of any valid length up to 128
bits [BCP198]. However, in accordance with the reasoning explained in
[RFC7421],
Do you think it makes sense to cite RFC 7934 as well? There is text in
there that also justifies the 64 bit boundary.
the Interface ID part of host interface addresses is generally 64 bits,
Note that this is also a change to the standard, because the previous
standard explicitly excluded global addresses starting with binary 000.
with exceptions only provided in special cases expressly recognized in
IETF standards track documents.
Can we require that said documents formally update this document?
