can't we let the ISP decide what makes sense? it seems (to me) that a
/48 for a business-type link (your traditional T1/T3 customer type,
and office, etc.) is perfectly rational. It seems, to me, that a /56
for a consumer (dsl/cable/etc) is also quite fine.

There are, I'm sure, ISP folks who'd decide to just assign a /48
across the board... I'm not sure that guidance (aside from general
scoping) is required from ARIN to the members/users.
