Because 6.5.8 doesn't seem to mention assignment on nibble boundaries (though I could have missed it), perhaps:
(d)	For purposes of the calculation in (c), an end site which can justify more than a /48 under the end-user assignment criteria in 6.5.8 shall count as the least multiple of 4
that can contain the size of the assignment under that policy.
