GCP for example hands out /96s to each VM, so this isn’t a theoretical or niche usecase.

Yes, for GCP all the VMs with a /96 in the same /64 will be closely related: in the same project, same VPC network, same cloud region. So from the point of abuse logic it's appropriate to treat the whole /64 as a single unit. (That was the starting point of the thread, even though I realize that due to thread drift that's probably not what your comment was about.)
