Teksavvy hands out /56 instead. :)
That sounds like a big waste of IP space. Why would any individual need that big a block?
Some people have many computers. ;-) Actually, some are advocating handing out /48s. One reason for more than just one /64 is multiple networks. For example, many businesses run VLANs. Each one requires a /64. Even home users might want a 2nd /64 for a guest network. The main point is that IPv6 was designed so that address space is no longer an issue. I'm just waiting for my 4000 /48s. ;-)
