So, let me ask the question in a different manner... 
What is the wisdom / reasoning behind needing to give a /56 to a Residential customer (vs a /64). 

The wisdom/reasoning behind larger allocations is to control the cost of doing business.

Arrange your network so that customers can do what they need without configuration costs on your part.

Follow the money.   Then keep it.
