I second that. I get thoroughly confused every time, there's
an xxxa coming up after a xxx9. I tend to use xx10 first,
then see that it doesn't work, then remember.

Currently we're using /126s on p2p, but I believe a migration
would be in order, considering the small amount of addresses
we are using anyway.

I definitely abstain from /64s. This is wasteful.
