We use /64's for interfaces/interface sets/ and route /48's through and
to those interfaces.  Am I in the minority when I look at the fact that
I have 65k /48's and don't really feel the need to subnet beyond a /64?
Operationally, it makes things much simpler as well (in my opinion, of
course).  I get my lower level techs to think in terms of /64's and
/48's rather than those plus any number of more specific subnets.  I
haven't had to do much to tweak our backend systems (all home grown) to
manage these values, etc.

Granted, I do use /128's for loopback addresses.
