IPv4 with more bits is usually proposed to have 64-bit (or even just 40-bit). IPv6 with 128-bit seems excessive but it makes transition mechanisms possible. NAT64 encodes the IPv4 address in the 64-bit host portion. MAP is even more interesting since it stores the whole NAT address and port for stateless CGNAT.
