Instead of answering these questions, tell me what is so wrong with giving a mobile user (cell phone! security camera, electricity meter ...) a /112 or something similar? Why is it so important that the 3GPP specs REQUIRE a /64, and consequently the vendors don't support anything else? Really, GGSN vendors only support /64 ....

I also work for a cellular provider/ISP, but I guess I can combine that with being an "ipv6 zealot".

Yes, I do agree that requiring a /64 per bearer/PDP is suboptimal, there should be a choice. I still don't think it's a waste of space, but I can agree that allowing for a few different subnet sizes would make sense.
