You should really listen to your customers. One argument in favor of /
48 for everyone is that that way, when a customer changes ISPs, he or
she only has to renumber a fixed prefix and not mess with subnet
numbering.
So if a customer had a /48 before, they're likely to want one again
even though they may not need many hundreds of subnets. (Growing from
smaller to larger is obviously easier.)
