Okay, so this is *really* stupid. On NTT FLET's, if you don't have a Hikari Denwa contract, you only get a /64 prefix assigned via IPv6 RA. If you do, you get a /56 via DHCPv6-PD. The /56 I just got? It's *the same as my old /64*. They are allocating a /56 for everyone anyway
Yes, it's just a server on their network available both via the normal IPv6 routing, and via a dedicated DHCP/IPv4 feed to a private net you get when you have the service (I think some of their gateways use v4 and some v6?). Normal IPv4 internet is either PPPoE or DS-Lite.

All this stuff is complicated enough (and hidden behind Japanese routers built for it for normal people) that I'm pretty sure there is some (no doubt dumb) technical/bureaucratic reason for this.
