I actually see that as a pretty good compromise. You could have all of your point-to-points at a pop in the same /64, you can give them all ::1 and ::2 addressing, and the addressing scheme supports both point-to-point and point-to-multipoint topologies. A customer with multiple locations in a region could run a circuit from each location and they could possibly all be in the same /112. If they want to multihome to you, they run similar links to a different pop in a different /112 in a different /64 that is part of that pop's /48. And the numbering is consistent at the user end. The ::2 site or ::3 site would be the ::2 site or ::3 from both pops with a different prefix. Seems reasonable to me.
