Someone might agree, someone might disagree. Structuring can be used
to drive decision making and policy.

One valid argument is, driving market to RFC8950 is beneficial,
because edge-interfaces are much harder to protect than
infrastructure, and having less edge addresses reduces attack surface.
But your argument is equally valid, what ever it may be.
And it would be fair to say, based on nanog-ml reaction, that it is
marketing mistake not to bundle, market reacts negatively to it.
