FYI

Es la tercera vez en el trnascurso de una semana que escucho la palabra
"farsa" para referirse a actividades relacionadas con el 6man wg.

Alguno podría considerarlo un avance... :-)

Job is correct, and I think the document editor can find one of the
various proposed formulations that avoids the farce.

Nobody is saying that /64 isn't extremely widely used where it's
appropriate to have a portable fixed length IID. Set the default
at 64 and trust operators to change it where they need to.
That's realistic.
