Nobody implemented this rule specific to ::/3. The point is not "specific rule for ::/3". The point is that this is a explicit rule for all that is *not* ::/3, with an exception(!) for ::/3. ... and still there are other RFCs that permit /126 and /127, so this definitely needs rewording to match current reality.
