Of course, this is just a “point-to-point Ethernet” not an allocation.
That said, I think the original intent was that such “point-to-point Ethernets” should have been issued /64, but seems /126 is common practice.

- colechristensen 7y agoComcast gives out /64s at least. I got my router to successfully ask for 2 on different interfaces.
- drbawb 7y agoSame story on Spectrum. On their residential plans they will give out a /64 by default. However w/ DHCPv6-PD I was able to successfully request a /56. What I found mildly interesting was they wouldn't allocate a /60. (My guess was: whatever silicon they've got pushing IPv6 packets around probably likes segmenting the routing table on a clean byte boundary.)
