Without commenting on your assertions on the applicability of an IPv6 /32, I will reiterate what I said:
>> Allocations beyond /32s or /48s are covered in existing policy and I suspect it unlikely there would be significant value to having the ability to change those policies on a twice-yearly basis.
I will admit some skepticism that continued fine tuning of the size of an initial IPv6 prefix justifies the continuation of a general policy forum.
