And, this is difficult why?  Everyone at the ISP has only one finger—  
so, therefore, they're unable to count up to two?

I think you skipped a step.  I don't understand why you want to spend  
any effort avoiding this "problem" when the "solution" seems to pose  
a whole passle of other, new and interesting problems, i.e. how to  
delegate a fractional prefix to a customer, i.e. "all these addresses  
belong to you, except this /64... ATTEMPT NO LANDINGS THERE!"
