How much do you understand about IPv6 addressing? Are you aware that IPv6 addresses have explicit preferred and valid lifetimes, and therefore they can change over time?
Only via privacy extensions.. and I always switch them off as they're a pain in the neck. Even with those they don't change the prefix. My /48 is allocated to me.. In no sane world would that suddenly change, unless I did something major like change ISP, any more than my v4 address would suddenly change. You're trying to say ipv6 prefixes change randomly over time - just think of the implications if that could happen... even basic things like firewalling would become a nightmare.
