No, it's not enough because you end up needing Proxy NDP for your traffic to reach other subnets smaller than a /64 (e.g. a /80) if you have the /64 on your wan interface and carve it out. Normally, you'd have a /64 on your wan, then another /64 for your containers or multiple /64s for different container deployments or virtual machines. Then traffic would route properly between your networks with ipv6 forwarding enabled.

It sounds like we are in full agreement.

If you're using proxy NDP then you don't have "more than enough" IP space for what you're doing. You have none and you're hacking up a workaround -- one that's inevitably going to have people coming away thinking "v6 is hard" rather than putting the blame where it deserves to be.
