If there is going to be a route in the global routing table
then it is better for that route to be a /32 rather than
to ambiguously allow for longer prefixes. Therefore, RIPE, and
all other RIRs, should give organizations a /32 if they intend
to announce routes in the global IPv6 routing table. 

This does not waste IPv6 space since a /32 is a very small fraction
of the IPv6 address space. In fact, it is the same as an IPv4
/32 when measured as a percentage of the total IPv4 address space.
